Gilbert Arenas has agreed to re-sign with the Washington Wizards for $111 million over six years, essentially taking millions less so that his team could have more financial flexibility, two newspapers reported Thursday.

Arenas told the Washington Times and Washington Post that he was offered a maximum deal in the neighborhood of $127 million on Tuesday, the first day of the free agency period.

Two-time All-Star forward Antawn Jamison re-signed with the Washington Wizards on Monday, agreeing to a four-year, $50 million deal.

"I just signed. We got it out of the way," Jamison told The Associated Press. The contract clears the way for the team to focus on its other major free agent: three-time All-Star Gilbert Arenas.

Washington guard Gilbert Arenas is expected to play in Game 2 of the Wizards' series against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday night despite a sprained right wrist.

Gilbert Arenas is finally speaking again. He sounds like the same ol' Agent Zero. "I'm an assassin. I get buckets," the Washington Wizards guard said after Friday's practice.

"I know I haven't played in a long time, but the shot is still there, so when I come off that bench, there is going to be some trouble." Arenas, usually a master of self-promotion, began a media boycott when he returned from a 66-game absence on April 2.

All-Star guard Gilbert Arenas has made a surprise return to the Washington Wizards, playing his first game since having knee surgery in November.

Showing a flare for the dramatic, Arenas waited until the 5:30 mark of the first quarter of the Wizards' game against Milwaukee on Wednesday night to emerge from the locker room in uniform.

He entered the game 9 seconds later to a big ovation and scored on a reverse layup with 4:49 left in the first.

It was his first points since Nov.
