Washington Wizards’ Rookies Know How To Bling

The Washington Wizards have crashed through the start of their 2007-2008 NBA season by losing three straight games. Are their players glum? Hardly. Instead of concentrating on fundamentals and layups, Wizards’ rookies Nick Young and Dominic McGuire decided to dedicate some time to rummaging through fellow teammate Gilbert Arenas’ closet to see what they could find.

“He’s got some nice stuff, he’s got some nice clothes,” McGuire said. “That’s why we were in there.”

What no paraphernalia in the form of nudie magazines, drugs, or dwarf servant slaves hiding out? Hell nah. But they did find some blingtastic fur coats that would make Zsa Zsa Gabor jealous.

“I would never wear this,” McGuire said. “It’s just a joke. I would never wear a fur coat, never. It’s not me. I’m not flashy.”
“It’s pretty warm,” Young said. “I don’t know what kind of [fur], if it’s real or not. If it is, I don’t know how much this thing costs. Very ’80s, very Players Ball.”

Find out how much they cost by putting those suckers on Ebay! It could be like some rookie hazing thing…except the rookies do the hazing and Gilbert Arenas gets mad.
