Morris Peterson's name has been thrown around in trade rumors recently, but he remains committed to helping the Raptors.
"Right now I'm happy," he said. "I'm just trying to get back healthy, that's my main focus, so I can get out on this court and help this team."
"I don't read the papers," said Peterson, who took part in a light practice yesterday after missing Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves because of a sore right hamstring. "I don't know (what's going on), but I've heard about a couple of things that people have been talking about.
"This is my seventh season (in the NBA) and every year you hear something about your name being in trade rumours. And that's just part of the game," he said. "My first year, my name was in trade talks and I was walking in the locker room, head down, and Dell Curry came up and said, 'This is nothing. Get used to this every season.' This is not something I'll let affect me."
