Arenas hurts knee again after return to starting lineup

 
Washington Wizards guard Gilbert Arenas, starting for the first time since November, left the game after injuring his surgically repaired knee in the first half Thursday night against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Arenas walked off the court late in the first half of the Wizards' 108-72 victory with an obvious limp. He has a bone bruise and possibly a pinched nerve in his left knee and is listed as day-to-day. Coach Eddie Jordan said Arenas will have therapy on the knee. [link]
