Elton Brand insists that he's more worried about returning to full health for the Clippers next season than showcasing his talents for potential trade suitors, according to the Los Angeles Daily News.

"People can look at it like that, but I've pretty much established myself in the league," he said. "I don't know how the off-season works, but I'm sure [other teams] could see me somehow without playing and have enough confidence in my ability that I can still play. So I don't think I need to come back to showcase myself to other teams."

"I'm not one to just up and leave a situation," he said. "I'm not a quitter. I owe it to the fans. I owe it to Coach [Mike Dunleavy]. He's out there coaching every single play."
