Gilbert Arenas has signed on to play with the BIG3 league this summer.
Agent Zero told league co-founder Ice Cube he’d commit to playing this summer with the three-on-three circuit on a recent episode of Arenas’ “The No Chill Podcast”
He also told Cube he’d like to have a roster of all Wizards teammates.
“I want the Wizards, alright?” Arenas said. Ï want all my Wizards teammates who didn’t shoot the ball. Alright? That’s who I want. I want Etan (Thomas), Brendan Haywood, DeShawn Stevenson, Kwame Brown. You know they already know my style.
“Eddie Jordan, where you at? We know the plays.”
Arenas played 11 seasons in the NBA in total. In eight seasons with the Wizards, he averaged 25.0 points, 5.7 assists, 4.2 rebounds, and 1.8 steals, making three All-Star game appearances.
Many of the younger Wizards fans view him as one of the greatest to ever play for the franchise.
Unfortunately, his run with the Wizards ended abruptly after a combination of a knee injury followed by the infamous gun incident inside the Wizards locker room with then-teammate Javaris Crittenton and the drafting of No. 1 overall pick John Wall in 2010 that ultimately to him being traded to the Orlando Magic for Rashad Lewis.
With Arenas committed to the BIG3, the only question now, when does the circuit come to Capital One Arena in DC?
