On January 13, Beijing time, the Cavaliers' latest injury report was released, and Rondo withdrew from today's game with the Jazz because of sore right hamstring.
After being traded to the Cavaliers by the Lakers, Rondo's performance was remarkable. Previously, he played in 3 games for the Cavaliers, averaging 10.3 points, 4 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1 steal per game, shooting 42.9% from three-point range.
Unexpectedly, after only 3 games, Rondo fell down because of the sore right hamstring. I have to lament that the years are not spared, and Rondo is also a veteran who is about to turn 36.
However, Rondo did not serve the old age. In an interview with Marc J. Spears, Rondo said, "I still want to compete at a high level. That's why he chose to leave the Lakers, and Rondo wants to play a bigger role in the team.
Speaking about Rondo's role, Cavaliers coach Bikstaff Jr. also said, "As a head coach, Rondo is a player you can rest assured to hand over the ball to him. Because of his ability to understand the game and his ability to get everyone involved when organizing the offense. ”
Hopefully, the injury is no big deal, and this season the Cavaliers have risen, currently in sixth place in the East with 23 wins and 18 losses, and have a great chance of making it into the playoffs. And the playoffs are the real stage for Rondo.
