Former Kentucky point guard Rajon Rondo took an inadvertent knee to the face from teammate Richard Jefferson during Dallas’ game against Orlando Saturday night.
Rondo’s nose almost immediately began bleeding profusely and he had to leave the game. He is going through extensive testing and the extent of his facial/head injuries are still unknown.
Rondo has already been ruled out of tonight’s game against Minnesota.
UPDATE from the Dallas Mavericks:
Rajon Rondo suffered an orbital fracture to his left eye as well as a nasal fracture during the game at Orlando on Saturday, January 31. His status will be updated later this week as more information is available.
Rondo will not travel with the team this week to Golden State and Sacramento while undergoing additional testing and evaluation.
