CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) – The Charlotte Bobcats have waived guard Javaris Crittenton after he failed to impress in his return from an ankle injury and a lengthy suspension for his role in the Gilbert Arenas gun flap.
Friday’s move comes after Crittenton scored just 13 points on 4 of 17 shooting in four exhibition games.
The Bobcats signed Crittenton to a non-guaranteed contract last month, hoping he could provide depth in the backcourt. Crittenton missed all of last season after two surgeries on his left ankle. He was also suspended for the final 38 games after he and Arenas took guns into the Washington Wizards locker room following a dispute over a card game.
Crittenton pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor gun charge and received probation.
The Bobcats now have 17 players.
