Swaggy P was clearly intrigued when sifting through his former Washington Wizard teammate's closet yesterday. The Lakers guard decided to wear Agent Zero's "Vote For Gilbert" shoes to Oracle Arena this evening.
The shoes are from the 2007-08 season; a year after Arenas was top 10 in MVP voting. The former Wizards guard posted 28.4 points per game, six assists per game, and 1.9 steal per game, leading Washington to a 41-41 record.
Young and Arenas were teammates together from 2007-10, before the latter was traded to Orlando for Rashard Lewis.
