Gilbert Arenas on entering the draft after his sophomore season at Arizona, then getting picked 31st

Posted by gilbertology on December 1st, 2006 in Gilbert's Thoughts

“I just knew my name was going to be called in the first round. I was watching the tube by myself while my dad was throwing a party in another room. I wanted to see what team I was going to and then join everyone to celebrate. When the first round was over and I didn’t get picked, I started crying like a baby. I threw my jewelry out the window. I was trying to call people and see if I could give back the car I bought. I called my coach at Arizona and asked if I could come back to school. It was terrible.”
