Rajon Rondo is an unrestricted free agent this summer and after his public spat with coach Rick Carlisle, it seemed grim that he’d return. However, Rondo said he’s still open to returning. Kobe Bryant is hoping that Rondo will choose to join him in L.A. next season. Apparently, the two are pretty close and speak [...]

Rondo has not gotten off to a great start with the Mavs. His numbers are down across the board, his team has struggled and he’s taken some heat stemming from his confrontation with Mavericks head coach Rick Carlisle. His Player Efficiency rating is a career low 11.7 and his free throw shooting is atrocious, as he’s shooting 29% from the line [...]
