Rajon Rondo plays season-high 30 minutes on Monday night
New Orleans Pelicans point guard Rajon Rondo logged more than 30 minutes in a 114-107 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder Monday night.
What It Means:
Rondo was expected to play between 24 and 26 minutes as he continues to work his way back into shape following sports hernia surgery. But, with DeMarcus Cousins being ejected in the third quarter, Rondo was asked to play additional minutes as one of the primary ballhandlers.
With the extra time, Rondo finished the game with 20.4 FanDuel points, including 4 points and 8 assists. At his $5,000 price, he fell short of 5x value, but he'll have a chance to provide better value tomorrow night against the San Antonio Spurs. At $5,200, he's projected for 17.1 FD points in the matchup.
