No Rajon Rondo tonight against the Wizards, here's why
Tell me if you've heard this one before..
The Boston Celtics will be without their star point guard in an upcoming game...
Not to worry though Celtics fans, there were no setbacks. The team is just looking to manage Rondo carefully, very very carefully.
Rajon Rondo is out for tonight, the Celtics announce.

Rondo is sitting only because it's the second game of a back-to-back, the team says.

The Celtics of course are coming off a road loss to the Heat in which Rondo played some extended minutes. You wouldn't want to risk further injury by pushing the young point guard too far, would you?
With no Avery Bradley either, this means we get a heavy dose of Chris Johnson, Phil Pressey and Vander Blue!
Ladies and Gentleman, your 2014 Celtics.
