2019 Player Capsules: Rajon Rondo

Season Summary
Like the Lakers as a whole, so much of Rajon Rondo’s season was unfortunately defined by injury.

He missed a month after breaking his hand in November, and then returned for only three games before a finger sprain caused him to sit another month. In total, he played 46 games, just over half the season.

When he was able to compete, Rondo brought his trademark playmaking to the table. While he didn’t play enough to qualify for the league leaderboard, Rondo averaged the NBA’s eighth-most assists (8.0) among players who appeared in at least one game.
