Gilbert Arenas confirmed on Tuesday evening that he will not return for the Wizards on Wednesday night against the Magic, according to The Washington Times.

"I'll just have to wait to see how it is in Orlando," said Arenas.

He said that he will probably wait another week before returning to the floor, and hinted that he wouldn't be so worried if Washington wasn't in the playoff hunt.

"If we weren't in the playoffs, it wouldn't even be a discussion. But we have a chance of being pretty good in the playoffs, so it's tough," Arenas added.
