"Let's go! I see you, boy! Yeah, yeah, yeah! Let's get it, West!" Gilbert Arenas said from behind the camera while cheering for his son in the video.

Alijah Arenas's mom, Laura Govan is in New York City to cheer for her son
While Alijah Arenas is busy with practice, scrimmages, and media appearances to promote Tuesday's big game, his mom, Laura Govan, along with his grandparents and siblings, are already in New York City. Govan has been busy going around the Big Apple and snapping pics with the rest of her family as Alijah Arenas completes his engagements in the leadup to the game.
Govan's eldest child, Izela Arenas, whose Louisville team did not make it past the second round of March Madness, was spotted in the photograph that she shared alongside rising freshman star Hamiley Arenas and rising middle school star Aloni Arenas as they marked their support for their brother.
Arenas's West Team will take on the East Team, which includes the Boozer Twins, Cameron and Cayden Boozer, as well as other high school stars like Nate Ament, Darius Acuff Jr., Isiah Harwell and Eric Reibe.
