Rajon Rondo Revealed Why His Brother William Has Been A Key To His Successful Bubble Play

 

Rajon Rondo’s brother William has made plenty of headlines this past weekend.

During the Los Angeles Lakers’ series deciding Game 5 win, William Rondo had an altercation with Houston Rockets All-Star Russell Westbrook.

Rondo and Westbrook exchanged words in the 4th quarter of the Lakers’ blowout win, followed by Rondo waving goodbye to Russ, leading to him getting thrown out. Arena security stepped in and escorted William off the premises.

 

 

Rajon Rondo in the meantime revealed how his brother has been a key to his playoff success in the series, saying that William’s presence in the Bubble has been a vital source of support and confidence for him.

Per The Undefeated:

 

“He’s been my rock since I’ve been here. A lot of inspiration. A lot of motivation. From the top on down, he’s somebody I look to from the stands and get my calmness from. He will tell me honestly to pick it up or that I’m doing great. He knows the game. I definitely need him in the building with me.”

“He actually gave me a hell of a boost in Game 2 against the Rockets. I was tired as hell and I was on [Rockets star] James [Harden] guarding him in the fourth quarter. He was like, ‘Dig deep. Get through it.’ I needed that. I actually told him that he helped me get through the fourth in terms of my fatigue. It wasn’t time for that. I heard him in the crowd and I’m always looking for him at the start of the games.”
