Arenas' Guns Row Involves Crittenton

THE investigation of Gilbert Arenas and the guns he brought to the Verizon Center took a much more serious turn on Friday amid a report that he and Washington Wizards teammate Javaris Crittenton allegedly drew on each other during a locker-room argument over a gambling debt.

The NBA and the Wizards would only confirm that an investigation is taking place -- and it's being led by law enforcement, not the league.

The New York Post reported Crittenton became angry at Arenas for refusing to make good on a gambling debt. That prompted Arenas to draw on Crittenton, who then reached for a gun, league security sources told the Post.

The NBA's collective bargaining agreement allows for players to legally possess firearms, but prohibits them at league facilities or when traveling on league business.
