It is becoming increasingly likely that Gilbert Arenas and Brendan Haywood will not be returning to the Wizards this season, the Washington Post is reporting.

With only 18 games remaining, both players have been out for the entire season with injuries.

According to sources, team president Ernie Grunfeld would prefer to see both veterans back before the season ends as long as they are medically cleared, but at least one Wizard, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said he doesn't expect to see Arenas again until training camp opens in October.

"I don't think he's coming back," the player said. "I just don't see it."
