Gilbert Arenas

Fullname Gilbert Jay Arenas was born January 6, 1982 in Miami, Florida, he currently play with the NBA's Washington Wizards. Arenas is of African-American and Cuban descent. Arenas is most often nicknamed "Agent Zero," but also has increasingly been known lately as "The Hibachi," Japanese meaning "fire bowl". Both names have quickly become fan favorites in Washington. Arenas overcame his meager NBA beginnings, including being a second round draft pick, to establish himself as one of the dynamic young players in the NBA.

Strength:
Arenas is a prototype "shoot-first pass-second" point guard. He is a highly gifted scorer who currently scores at a rate of almost 30 points per game, often using his trademark slashing drives to the basket as well as his long-range jumpshot.
He has been named by many players as the hardest player to guard in the NBA.
He is also one of the best ball thieves in the NBA.

Weakness:
His on-ball defensive game is still considered below average.
