One of the more unexpected moments to occur during the NBA playoffs was the issue that arose between William Rondo, brother of Los Angeles Lakers point guard Rajon Rondo, and the Houston Rockets’ Russell Westbrook.
In the fourth quarter of the Lakers’ closeout victory over the Rockets in Game 5, Westbrook was seen having words with one of the fans, which turned out to be the older Rondo brother. Ultimately he was escorted out of the arena by security and hasn’t been able to attend any of the subsequent Lakers games, but Rajon wants that to change for the NBA Finals.
