Gilbert Arenas gun shakeup was a result of card game?
According to ESPN, a dispute that began on the team plane and resumed more than 24 hours later in the team’s locker room between Washington Wizards guards Gilbert Arenas and Javaris Crittenton is at the center of an investigation by local and federal authorities. Arenas’ recent admission of gun possession on Wizards property, according to sources close to the situation has opened up an internal inquiry by the Wizards as well as a criminal investigation.
An argument commenced during a card game on the team’s overnight flight back to Washington from Phoenix on Dec. 19 and escalated into a heated exchange between Arenas and Crittenton. The Wizards had Dec. 20 off, but sources say the hostilities resumed Dec. 21 in the locker room on a practice day. Sources say that Arenas, in response to what was said on the flight, placed three guns he owns on a chair near Crittenton’s locker stall and invited him to pick one before practice on Dec. 21. Sources said that Crittenton, subsequently, let Arenas know that he had his own gun.
I just have one question. What type of Russian roulette card game were those two playing on the plane? Are they serious? Are they willing to jeopardize their entire career over a card game? Professional athletes really need to start thinking before they do idiotic things like this. Gilbert Arenas has a six-year, $111 million contract and Javaris Crittenton current salary is $1,477,920. Even though Crittenton’s contract is up after this year, I guess he wants an early departure one way or another as well.
