Gilbert Arenas is looking to sign a maximum contract with the Washington Wizards, who can offer a six-year contract worth more than $100 million, and he is weighing his physical as well as financial future.
He originally injured his left knee last April 4 and underwent surgery to repair a torn left lateral meniscus the following day. He underwent a second surgery to repair a torn left medial meniscus on Nov. 21.
"If you were a general manager, would you pay someone max money if he's had three knee surgeries?" Arenas said. "I wouldn't. That's just business. That's the scared part I have going on in the back of my head. If I go out there, I can't be second-guessing. That's how you get hurt in the first place. It's about having that comfort."

I don't think he'd going anywhere normally, and since the Wizards will have a better handle of his situation than anyone else, if he were to go anywhere else I'd think he was damaged goods.
I don't envision that being the case though. Hopefully he and the Wizards can work out a deal.
