Steve Francis+Follow"Richard Jefferson Recounts Gilbert Arenas’ Audacious College Scam: Fake Autographed Basketballs"Former NBA star Gilbert Arenas reportedly pulled off one of the wildest memorabilia schemes in college history—right under the NCAA's nose. As told by Richard Jefferson, who played alongside him at Arizona, Arenas didn’t exactly “steal 50 to 100 signed team balls,” as he once claimed. Instead, he purchased most of them and then forged the rest of the autographs, distributing the counterfeit basketballs. Jefferson even encountered one of them at the Tucson airport—a real head-turner. If the NCAA had caught wind of it, things could have gotten much worse. Arenas has since earned the nickname "Agent Zero" and forged a big-league career as a dynamic guard—but his college hustle was on another level. #GilbertArenas #RichardJefferson #CollegeBasketball #NCAA #NBAStories #SportsLegends #ThrowbackDrama #NBA #Sports 320Share
Pamela Owens+FollowHow good was Gilbert Arenas in his prime? Before the injuries and the locker room incident, Agent Zero was a walking bucket. From 2005 to 2007, Arenas averaged 28.3 PPG, 5.4 APG, 4.6 RPG, and shot nearly 36% from deep — including a 60-point masterpiece against Kobe’s Lakers. He was feared, clutch, and could drop 40 on anyone, anytime. He wasn’t just flash either — he led the Wizards to three straight playoff appearances and was one of the most electric guards in the league before his body gave out. Was Gilbert underrated or properly rated for his short but explosive prime? #NBA #GilbertArenas #AgentZero #Wizards #NBALegends #NBATalk70Share
