Arenas hurt in opener

FORMER NBA All-Star guard Gilbert Arenas injured himself in his Chinese Basketball Association debut as his Shanghai Sharks lost to the defending champions Beijing Ducks 78-94.

Arenas, who signed with the Yao Ming-owned Sharks last week, limped off the court halfway through the first quarter of Saturday night's opening game of the 2012-2013 season and sat out the rest of the match.

"He pulled a hip flexor (muscle), he will be day-to-day ... obviously we would like to have him back as soon as possible," Shanghai's American coach Dan Panaggio told reporters

Team officials said Arenas could be out for up to a week.
