“I’m the best skater in the [NBA],” Rondo told the Boston Globe in 2008. “I don’t know who’s good, but I’m the best skater in the league. That’s just something I like to do outside the court. A lot of us like to bowl, too, but I’d rather skate. I’m in my own zone.”
The Legend of Rondo continues…
Who is Rondo’s competition for best roller skater in the NBA? My guesses:
- Chase Budinger (probably a roller blade man, however)
- Baron Davis (though he prefers tandem bicycling)
- Jimmer Fredette (what else is he doing on nights off?)
- Fred Jones (honorable mention, Chinese Basketball Association)
And, of course:
- Russell Westbrook
