Former Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo took to Twitter to bid his farewell to Beantown, after he was traded Thursday night to the Dallas Mavericks.
Rondo spent the first eight years of his NBA career in Boston, and thanked the C’s faithful for everything.
The four-time All-Star is looking forward to the next step in his basketball journey:
