Gilbert Arenas has released an official statement with his version of the confrontation between Agent Zero and Javaris Crittendon in the Wizards’ locker room on December 21st. In what can only be called a minor upset, the statement comes via his attorney’s Web site, and not Arenas’ Twitter feed.
A highlight:
On Monday, December 21st, I took the unloaded guns out in a misguided effort to play a joke on a teammate. Contrary to some press accounts, I never threatened or assaulted anyone with the guns and never pointed them at anyone.
Joke or not, I now recognize that what I did was a mistake and was wrong. I should not have brought the guns to DC in the first place, and I now realize that there’s no such thing as joking around when it comes to guns — even if unloaded.
