Gilbert Arenas says he didn’t snitch on NBA stars as part of gambling probe in X video

The former basketball point guard Gilbert Arenas has taken to social media to deny snitch allegations in the ongoing NBA gambling probe.
On Monday, October 27, he posted a video online, along with the caption: “First off… these snitch allegations y’all throwing on my name gotta STOP. Ever since the internet started calling me ‘Agent 911,’ my 2K numbers been in witness protection.

First off… these snitch allegations y’all throwing on my name gotta STOP.

“I was averaging 18 a game before this nonsense — so just know… if I don’t drop 20 in my next game, I’m suing everybody in real life. Comments included. #DefamationAffectsBuckets #AgentZeroNotAgentInformant.”
In the past week, Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier, Portland Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups, and former NBA star Damon Jones were arrested by the FBI and charged over alleged illegal gambling. The separate allegations have been denied. However, the 43-year-old insists he was talking about his case not this FBI probe.
In July, Arenas was arrested alongside five others on a federal indictment alleging that they were operating an illegal gambling business. He was later seen dancing out of jail as he denied any involvement. The former NBA star claims the cases are not linked.

He could also be seen on his podcast, Gil’s Arena, poking fun at the situation as he entered with the paper bag. “This is my lunch, I didn’t get to eat it over there, man. I was talking too much,” he said.
Now, in his most recent video, he said: “I don’t even wanna go to the park no more, cause they think I’m snitching at the park.
“There’s one thing that I do, troll. Tell on somebody, I don’t do that.” The two-minute-long video has racked up over 800,000 views. Arenas has been posting videos relating to the 2K basketball game which is what he’s referring to in the caption regarding points.
