Gilbert Arenas and Melli Monaco faced each other for the second time. They had a 1-on-1 match against each other on the basketball court in Arenas’ house. Although the match went as expected, Melli felt that the Washington Wizards legend only won because he cheated and that he should be ashamed of himself.

While going on a rant about this to her fans on YouTube, Monaco revealed a secret about Gilbert Arenas. According to her, the NBA has lied about his height, and truthfully, he is much shorter than he claims.

After losing by a score of 0-21, Monaco went on a livestream rant about her match with Agent 0 to her fans. During her conversation, she went over Arenas’ career stats in the NBA. She then noticed that his height was listed as 6’4. Monaco was clearly surprised at seeing that.

She quickly told everyone that it was a lie. She claimed she was 6 feet tall, and Arenas was just a little bit taller than her. So according to Monaco, Arenas is actually just 6’1 or 6’2, and the people in the NBA just gave him the height of 6’4 to intimidate his opponents.

It is not new for players to lie about their height. But the fans and media rarely leave it unnoticed. Over his career, Arenas was never questioned about his true height. Melli Monaco believes that what is displayed online is not the truth.

She said, “You know they lied… I swear to you, he is 6’2. I am 6 feet. It was little, the difference between me and him.”

 

Melli has obviously been furious after her first two losses against Arenas. She now has just one more opportunity to keep her car and win a million dollars from Arenas.

Based on the challenge they set, if Gilbert Arenas wins the third and final challenge that will take place next week, he will walk away with her car, which is a Porsche 911. If Melli wins that, then he would have to give her $1 million. From the way the games have been so far, it is hard to see how Arenas could actually lose.

But Melli might be on equal footing with Arenas in the final challenge. The first two challenges were tennis and basketball, and both sports require athleticism. The third challenge will be bowling, so this could finally be the game in which the score will actually be close.
