Arenas waiting for 1 million followers to tweet

Posted: Updated:

WASHINGTON (AP) - Gilbert Arenas is waiting for an audience.

The enigmatic NBA point guard and former blogger extraordinaire finally signed up for Twitter, but he says he won't post anything on the social networking site until he has 1 million followers.

Could be quite some time: Arenas' feed had fewer than 1,700 followers as of Wednesday night.

"Once I get a million followers, I'll do it," Arenas said after his Washington Wizards beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 108-91 Wednesday.

Asked why he picked that number, he said because it's "so far-fetched."

When someone pointed out to Arenas that the way people tend to accrue followers is by tweeting, he replied: "I'm trying to do the opposite."
