NBA: 4 Wizards fined $10K for Arenas gun antics

WASHINGTON — Four Washington Wizards players have been fined $10,000 apiece for making light of Gilbert Arenas’ antics before Tuesday’s game at Philadelphia.

The fines were assessed Friday night to Andray Blatche, JaVale McGee, Randy Foye and Nick Young.
The four players were among a group that surrounded Arenas when he pointed his index fingers at teammates as if he were firing a pair of guns during a pregame huddle. A photo shows most of the players smiling or laughing.
Arenas has been banned indefinitely by the NBA while under investigation by federal and local authorities for possible violations of the strict gun laws in the nation’s capital.
