Article

Gilbert Jay Arenas Jr. (/əˈriːnəz/ ə-REE-nəz; born January 6, 1982) is an American former professional basketball player. Arenas attended Grant High School in the Valley Glen district of Los Angeles, and accepted a scholarship offer to the University of Arizona late in his junior year. He was drafted by the Golden State Warriors with the 31st overall pick in the 2001 NBA draft.

Arenas was a three-time NBA All-Star, three-time member of the All-NBA Team during his time in Washington, and was voted the NBA Most Improved Player in the 2002–03 season in his final season in Golden State. Arenas was nicknamed "Agent Zero" while playing with Washington, due to his jersey number (0). He was also nicknamed "Hibachi" for "cooking" his opponents. Both names quickly became fan favorites during his time in the Washington, D.C. area. Arenas played the point guard and shooting guard positions.
