NBA Players Association chief Billy Hunter is expected to meet with Gilbert Arenas on Wednesday.

Hunter will offer his support to Arenas and learn more about the investigation into the guard bringing four weapons to Verizon Center last month.

"Once the commissioner makes his decision, that will determine what extent we get involved and don't get involved," Hunter said. "I think the commissioner felt compelled to take action under the circumstances, to try to quiet things down.

"But everybody is entitled to due process," he added. "The question becomes one of ensuring that the punishment fits the offense. You don't use a sledgehammer to drive a tack. That's what I'm about, to ensure due process. A lot of it depends on how quickly the investigation by the authorities gets completed."
