Frank Vogel believes Rajon Rondo will be ready to play for the Los Angeles Lakers before the start of the playoffs on August 17.

Rondo has arrived in Orlando, Florida following his successful thumb surgery. The veteran guard has to return seven consecutive negative coronavirus tests and then he can re-join the Lakers in the Disney “bubble” with a four-day quarantine.
