Rondo agreed Saturday to a contract buyout with the Grizzlies and will become a free agent, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. Unsurprisingly, the Grizzlies and Rondo agreed to part ways, as the veteran doesn't fit Memphis' timeline and the team has plenty of backup guards.
According to Charania, the Lakers are the frontrunners to acquire Rondo. He was part of the Lakers' title run, and he averaged 8. The veteran point guard began last season in Atlanta before coming over to the Clippers at the trade deadline. If that turns out to be the case, Rondo would likely look to latch on with a title contender as he heads into his age season.

Right in this instant, however, is where both quarterback and receiver understand the true intent of it all.
Rondo seamlessly goes from dribbling the ball and surveying the court to throwing a lob towards the top of the square. Davis elevates, catches the ball, and dunks it home. His tactical brilliance and basketball acumen would be deployed in the film room, on the team plane and bus, in practice sessions, and, during games Again, everyone seemed to understand this would be the case, and everyone — including Rondo himself — was cool with these arrangements. However, with only one preseason game left and the Lakers set to begin the games that actually count in less than a week, I wonder if those best laid plans actually come to fruition.

The hope is that Monk and Nunn will return for the season opener, but THT is out for at least a month and Ellington is likely out for a week.
