This week is all about the Wizards good guys.

First, Gilbert Arenas announced he will again team up with Wizards owners Abe and Irene Pollin to donate $100 per point scored by Gilbert in every Wizards regular season game to a public school in the DC Metro Area in his second “Gilbert Scores for Schools” program.

Then on Friday, Caron Butler flew back to his hometown to hold his second annual “Coats for Kids“. Caron partnered with Wal-Mart to provide 700 coats, hats and gloves to the students of Gilmore Middle School in Racine, Wisconsin.

Daniels, and his fellow Class of 2007, participated in an official induction ceremony on Friday evening and were introduced on Saturday afternoon at the Bowling Green-Temple football game at Doyt Perry Stadium.

Today, it was another good guy who we’ll miss his energy and toughness on the court as well as his good character and active involvement in the community activities. It was announced today that free agent forward Michael Ruffin (6-8, 248) has signed a contract with the Milwaukee Bucks.
