3. Rajon Rondo is the 3rd best point guard in the NBA
3. Rajon Rondo, Boston Celtics

Rajon Rondo may not be a great scorer—although he did show some scoring potential in last year’s playoffs when he averaged 17.3 points per game—and he is far from a three point threat, but his superbly well-rounded game and ability to do just about everything well is more than enough to earn him the third spot on this list. 

Don’t believe me?  Just look at the six triple-doubles he had last season.  Kyle Lowry, Jarrett Jack, Kemba Walker and JJ Barea were the only other PGs to record a triple-double last year, and they were only able to manage one each…meaning Rondo’s six triple-doubles were more than all other NBA PGs combined last season.

With 11.9 points, 11.7 assists, 4.8 rebounds and 1.8 steals per game last season to go along with a 3.21 assist to turnover ratio, it should be clear how well-rounded of a player Rondo is.  Not to mention the scoring potential he showed in last year’s playoffs.

Look for Rondo to take another step forward this year as he looks to lead his Boston Celtics to the NBA Finals.
