*Washington Wizards guard Gilbert Arenas has moved into a halfway house in Montgomery County, Maryland, where he will spend his nights serving out a sentence for bringing guns into the team’s locker room.
Arenas began his punishment Friday with two days in the county jail, according to the Associated Press. Arthur Wallenstein, head of corrections in Montgomery County, says Arenas was transferred Sunday to the county’s work-release facility.
Montgomery County is letting him serve his sentence there, as part of an agreement with the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
The 28-year-old NBA star pleaded guilty to a felony gun charge in January, and has been suspended by the league until the end of the season.
In addition to the 30 days, Arenas was sentenced to a $5,000 fine and 400 hours of community service that can’t be performed at basketball clinics.
