Rondo's name and the Sacramento Kings have been linked for as long as the new ownership group has been in place. Could this longstanding rumor finally become reality? It will if Rudy has his say in it.
In the latest of endless rumors linking Rajon Rondo to the Sacramento Kings, Marc Stein is reporting that Rudy Gay is actively recruiting Rondo into what would likely be a one year deal in Sacramento.

Now, I will be the first to say that I have never been a huge Rondo fan, but seeing as point guard is a major need for the Sacramento Kings, and their history, both good and bad, of taking on guys with troubled history, I would definitely take a chance on Rajon Rondo for the right price.
