It seemed like Rajon Rondo had just waltzed onto the Boston Celtics in 2006 and emerged as one of the best point guards on the team.

In May 2010, GQ.Com listed him as their pick for the third best point guard in the NBA. On April 17, 2009, Red Bull chose him as the figurehead for their Boston’s Got Wings charity. In 2008 he became an NBA Champion and in 2010 he was selected to play in an NBA All-Star Game.

In the 2009-2010 season he averaged 13.7 points, 9.8 assists and 2.3 steals, becoming the first Celtic to lead the league in steals. In November 2009 the Boston Globe called him “the most vividly athletic player on the team”. It’s obvious that he is an incredible talent.

With a recent injury to his hamstring, there have been thoughts that Rondo may have to take an extended rest from the game. With a possible absence from the court coming up, it’s a good time to take a look at Rondo’s qualities off the court. He’s not only a great basketball player, but he’s also a stylish dresser.

When asked what being fashionable means to him, Rondo said, “Having your own style, not going on what the next man or the next person is wearing. It’s being unique and being different.” Unique certainly describes a lot of Rondo’s style, including one of his cars.

 

 

 

 

Rondo knew how to look good when interviewed by the Boston Globe, posing in a tasteful grey jacket over t-shirt and slacks.

Casualness has always been a factor with Rondo; he doesn’t always aim for the most expensive purchases. When he signed on for a five year, fifty-five million dollar contract, he took his family to eat at the comparatively inexpensive and casual Texas Roadhouse restaurant chain. His family loved the restaurant, and this shows that Rondo has a willingness to put family before image.

Check out Rondo’s excellent choice in contrasting a red tie against a white jacket. Ashley Bachelor looks great in her elegant black and white dress. Its flattering cut shows off her curves and makes her more than a good match for Rondo.

 

 

When we asked him who he thought the best dressed player in the locker room was, the man gave us a great answer, “Me.”

Well, Rondo, looking at these pictures and seeing your sense of style, it’s hard to disagree with you.
