There are many things Rajon Rondo is known for. Great passing. Jarring banter. But one of the things that's forgotten: he will beat you and your family in Connect Four.
Rajon Rondo spent his final day as a Celtic dominating Connect Four at a children’s hospital
He showed no remorse.
That’s what makes this anecdote about Rondo’s gaming skills during his final hours in Boston so great. From Baxter Holmes’ profile for ESPN:
(Rondo’s Connect Four prowess has since become legendary and has made for heartwarming-yet-awkward community outreach moments. The day he was traded to Dallas in December, he spent his final hours as a Celtic at Boston Children’s Hospital, crushing all comers in the game, repeatedly telling kids, “No mercy.”)
This and more can be found in Holmes’ latest feature story on Rondo here.
