Boston Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo made his return from his broken hand on Wednesday, and was the quintessential point guard, dropping 13 points, 12 assists, seven rebounds, one steal and one block in a 121-105 win over the Brooklyn Nets.
Rondo is a different kind of cat, so it shouldn’t be a shock that the Celtics star took the subway to the season opener as well.

The Orange Line makes a stop at North Station, which is also the home of the TD Garden, where the Celtics play. Before the game, a reporter inquired to Rondo about his travel habits to the Celtics opener. At first, the point guard wasn’t exactly forthcoming, but Rondo changed his tune when presented with the evidence. Here’s the full back and forth between the two.
Reporter: Did you ride the T to the game?
Rondo: No.
Reporter: There was a picture of you on the T.
Rondo: Oh, is that right? Then why did you ask me that question? You are giving away my transportation to the game man!
