The Boston Celtics have assigned Rajon Rondo to the Maine Red Claws of the D-League for a workout.

Rondo will be reassigned to the Celtics at the conclusion of the workout.

“Rajon is progressing terrifically in his rehab and this is the next step,” said Danny Ainge, Celtics President of Basketball Operations. “This is a brief assignment so that Rajon can participate in a workout this afternoon with the Red Claws and he will be called back up to the Celtics upon the conclusion of the workout.”
