Washington Wizards guard Javaris Crittenton pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor gun charge on Monday afternoon – 10 days after teammate Gilbert Arenas pleaded guilty to a felony gun charge. Crittenton was sentenced to a year of unsupervised probation and fined $1,250.

Crittenton, 22, pleaded guilty to possession of an unregistered firearm, and as part of a plea agreement, prosecutors dropped a second misdemeanor charge of attempted carrying a pistol without a license.

Arenas pleaded guilty on Jan. 15 to a felony gun charge connected to a locker-room argument that is believed to have involved Crittenton.

Arenas, who is under an indefinite NBA suspension, will learn the ultimate length of the ban by the end of next week.
