Nick Wright: “Rondo is gone almost assuredly to Atlanta”

Rajon Rondo is not coming back to the Los Angeles Lakers after winning his second NBA championship last season. According to sports analyst Nick Wright, the 34-year-old point guard is most likely going to join the Atlanta Hawks.

“Rondo is gone almost assuredly to Atlanta,” Wright claimed on First Things First. The two-time NBA champion was also linked with the Lakers’ city rivals the Clippers, but it appears he is moving to the East.

Last season, Rondo averaged 7.1 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists per game during regular season. His stats improved during the playoffs to 8.9 points, 4.3 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game.
