Former NBA star Gilbert Arenas has announced that he is starting his coaching career in honor Kobe Bryant. Agent Zero took to instagram on Tuesday to reveal how Kobe recently advised him to put his basketball mind to use rather than wasting his time being a jackass on social media. As a result, Arenas will be now coaching a local U14 team in Southern California.
