Known for his trash-talking skills on and off the court, Gilbert Arenas has always been expressive and vocal about his opinion. Today, the retired NBA veteran is a sports analyst, podcaster, and content creator on YouTube as well.

In recent news, he got into a verbal altercation with fellow YouTuber Melli Monaco. Melli Monaco then challenged the three-time NBA All-Star to a 1v1 basketball match with $1 million (Arenas’) and a Porsche 911 (Monaco’s) on the line.

Gilbert Arenas 1v1 Basketball Game

Melli Monaco is a 33-year-old YouTube content creator and a rising star in the music industry as well. Monaco visited Gilbert Arenas at his home, where the two played a 1v1 basketball match at Arenas’ home court. It was not long before Arenas won the ‘poorly contested’ 1v1 game. Gilbert Arenas, who was nicknamed ‘Agent Zero’ in the NBA for his fearless scoring, is a three-time NBA All-Star and even won the ‘Most Improved Player’ in his sophomore year in the NBA.

The bet for the Porsche 911 (Monaco’s) and the $1 million (Arenas’) was made contingent on the fact that the two of them will play a total of three sports.
