Rondo Cleared For Full Contact, January Return Expected

[jonathanlambert33]

Boston Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo received clearance to resume full-contact practice activities on Friday and coach Brad Stevens said he believes Rondo should return to game action next month.

Rondo traveled Friday with team physician Dr. Brian McKeon to meet with operating surgeon Dr. James Andrews, who examined Rondos progress and cleared him to return to practice activities. The Celtics threw Rondo into the fire on Saturday, engaging in a spirited 45-minute session despite coming off game action on Friday night.

[Rondo] had a good trip [Friday], as far as getting good news, and it looks like hes on schedule to be closer, but still probably doesnt look like were going to see him on the court any time this month, said Stevens. Hopefully as we get into January, hell be closer.

Hopefully he comes back with more of a jump shot. Add a new dimension to his game.
