Though not officially announced, Rajon Rondo will return from his injury this season not wearing kicks with a Swoosh on it, but leaving Nike for China-based brand ANTA.
This doesn’t seem to be the only news coming from this overseas brand that already features a player roster that is only worn in the NBA by Kevin Garnett, Luis Scola, and soon-to-be Rajon Rondo. Officially dubbed ‘Team Fearless’, the ANTA website has a page that shows Scola, KG, and two blank spots. By not it goes without saying that Rondo will fill one of those spots, so it would be safe to assume that there will be another player to fill the available space; meaning someone else in the NBA is likely to be wearing ANTA this season.
