Rajon Rondo will not be on the court for the Celtics when they open training camp next week. He also will likely not be on the court when the season starts either and all of this due to a clumsy move at home. Rondo apparently fell at home and when he tried to brace his fall, he wound up breaking his hand. “The team confirmed that Rondo “underwent successful surgical fixation of a left metacarpal fracture” and said the “injury was a result of a fall at his home (Thursday) night.” He’s expected to miss the next six to eight weeks”. Rondo has been the subject on many trade rumors and an injury like this will put any of those talks on hold until he heals up. The Celtics need everyone they have this season after a ugly season last year.
