With Ricky Rubio now out for the season, the Cleveland Cavaliers are apparently turning to Rajon Rondo for help.
The Cavaliers acquired the Los Angeles Lakers guard in a trade on Friday, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski and The Athletic's Shams Charania. Guard Denzel Valentine will head to the Lakers as part of the deal. The Lakers are expected to waive Valentine's partially guaranteed deal to open a roster spot, per Wojnarowski.
Rubio, late in the Cavaliers’ loss to the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday, collapsed to the court after his left knee buckled trying to drive through the lane.
