Former NBA star Gilbert Arenas has stirred major controversy recently with his actions on social media. After retiring from the league, the former Washington Wizards star has become a media personality and hosts the No Chill with Gilbert Arenas. Many former and current stars have made appearances on the show. Arenas himself makes a lot of appearances on talk shows as well, to voice his hot takes on various issues in basketball and beyond. But fans were not happy with his latest accusation against his former teammate, Kwame Brown.
Arenas and Brown have been beefing ever since their time playing for the Wizards. Arenas once revealed that Brown had filed a police report against him after an argument. So there is definitely not a lot of love between the two.

The 2003 Most Improved Player was talking about a podcast episode of Brown. In the episode, the former #1 pick reportedly stated that his daughter started riding a bike when she was one. This was the major reason behind Arenas’ accusations of his former teammate.
