Rave Reviews for Rajon Rondo's Return (to practice)
Via ESPN Boston's Chris Forsberg, here's what Jared Sullinger had to say about having his All-Star floor general back on the practice court:
"Now we have highlights. Before we didn’t really have a lot of highlights, other than Jeff [Green] dunking or Jordan [Crawford's] spin move. Now we have a little bit more highlights with the ball fake to the up-and-under layups to the Hakeem shake. We got highlights now. It’s a lot of fun to do the 'Oooohs' and 'Aaaahhs' in practice. I feel like he hasn’t missed a beat. He’s still competing just as hard, his eyes lit up, he has the eye of the tiger, he’s ready to get back out there, obviously."
And from Avery Bradley:
"It's been good. He's been moving well, and he's just getting used to being out here with us."
Celtics.com writer Marc D'Amico also shared these thoughts from Brad Stevens:
Stevens thinks Rondo is going to shoot well when he returns. Working on shot is the "one thing he's been able to do the past couple months"
