With news that the Los Angeles Lakers have a deal lined up to add Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Dennis Schröder to the team once the league’s moratorium on trades is lifted at noon Monday, does this mean former Boston Celtic floor general Rajon Rondo is more likely to return to the team?
While it was assumed to be likely that the two-time champ would return to the club he won his most recent deal with, this move might signal the end of that partnership moving forward.
And while probing the possibility a Rondo reunion is far from Boston’s most critical concern at this stage of their offseason, it seems like a an avenue worthy of exploration once bigger proverbial fish have been fried.
Lakers PG Rajon Rondo could return to LA but Clippers, Celtics, 76ers & Bucks are interested too – https://t.co/7uRSdnGU7G
In @BovadaOfficial's newest odds, the purple and gold an edge, however.

Popular online betting outlets are actually viewing such a reunion as fairly probable, reports Heavy.com’s Brandon “Scoop B” Robinson.
Some have even gone as far to set the odds as high as the third-most likely option behind the Lakers and crosstown rivals, the Clippers.
If we had to guess, we’d venture Rondo finds a way to stick with the Lakers, though it’s certainly not impossible to see him in green and white again.
