Tyson Chandler credits strong Lakers debut to Rajon Rondo

Tyson Chandler made his debut for the Los Angeles Lakers Wednesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves and he made an impact almost immediately with his effort on the glass. Following the win, Chandler was quick to credit his impressive debut to his teammates, particularly Rajon Rondo.

While head coach Luke Walton’s decision to keep Rondo in the game over Lonzo Ball was puzzling to many fans, Chandler said that having Rondo on the floor helped him stay involved.
