Arenas: 'I deserve to be punished' for gun prank

Basketball Betting Lines

03/15/2010 -

WASHINGTON (AP) -Gilbert Arenas says he deserves to be punished for bringing guns to the locker room.

The suspended Washington Wizards guard tells Esquire magazine he wasn't using ``longevity thinking'' when he took out four guns in what he says was an attempt to play a prank on teammate Javaris Crittenton in December.

Arenas pleaded guilty to a felony gun charge in January and will be sentenced next week. He has been suspended until the end of the season by the NBA.

The Esquire article hits newsstands next week. In it, Arenas says he ``messed up'' the legacy of Wizards owner Abe Pollin, who died in November. Arenas says he called Pollin's widow to apologize.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
