Lakers guard Rajon Rondo expected to have surgery, be out a month

Los Angeles Lakers point guard Rajon Rondo is expected to undergo surgery to repair an injured finger on his right hand, a source confirmed to ESPN.

A source confirmed that Rondo could miss a month after he has surgery on his shooting hand for a second time this season. The team said on Wednesday that Rondo has suffered a Grade 3 sprain to his right ring finger and that his status would be updated Friday.

The Athletic first reported that Rondo will have surgery on the hand again.

Rondo injured his hand during the Lakers' 127-101 win over the Golden State Warriors on Christmas Day.
