Former NBA star Gilbert Arenas made fun of his son, Alijah Arenas, after he named his top five NBA players to watch on Sunday. Gilbert's co-host in "Gil's Arena," Josiah Johnson, asked Alijah to name his five favorite NBA players.
Johnson was aware that James Harden was Alijah Arenas' favorite NBA player. With that in mind, Josiah was curious to know which other players Alijah loved watching. The Chatsworth High School basketball star still named Harden on his list despite Johnson asking him to name other players. As a result, his father playfully roasted his son for being a Harden fan.
"He's a Harden sexual," Gilbert hilariously told Johnson in the background.

Alijah's list included LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Steph Curry and Trae Young along with James Harden. Johnson then made the young Arenas second guess his list after mentioning Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Alijah then quickly remade his list and only named three players consisting of Harden, James and SGA.

Gilbert Arenas' son Alijah Arenas now one of most followed high school athletes on social media
Gilbert Arenas' son, Alijah Arenas, is now one of the most followed high school athletes on social media. Alijah recently hit 100,000 Instagram followers and showed love back on his Instagram stories. He took a screenshot of his follower count with the caption:
"Blessed."
It's no surprise how Alijah is getting a lot of attention as he is one of the most talented basketball players in the USA. Gilbert Arenas' son plays for Chatsworth High School in Los Angeles. He dropped 40 points at the Real Run Showcase, wherein the young Arenas went up against some of the country's best high school players, on Saturday.
It seems that Alijah Arenas is on the right track to becoming a basketball star and replicating his father's NBA stardom one day. Alijah turns 18 on March 16. He is now approaching his college years and could soon enter the NBA when he feels like he's ready.
As of December, Gilbert Arenas' son had received offers from multiple universities, including Alabama, Arizona, Arizona State, Cal and Fresno State. Whichever university Alijah commits to, it'll be one step closer to his NBA aspirations.
