Arenas pleads guilty in gun case

WASHINGTON Wizards guard Gilbert Arenas pleaded guilty on Friday to felony gun possession after bringing four firearms into the National Basketball Association team's locker room and faces up to six months in prison under his plea deal.

Arenas, 28, who has a six-year, US$111 million contract, has been suspended by the NBA over the incident last month at the Verizon Center. He has said the guns were unloaded. The charge, carrying a pistol without a license in violation of District of Columbia law, carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison. Sentencing is in late March.
