Reports: Belinelli, Rondo agree to deals with Kings - NBA.com (blog)
The Kings reached agreements with point guard Rajon Rondo and shooting guard Marco Belinelli , securing the two positions the team coveted most this summer. Rondo's deal is for one year and $10 million, a person with direct knowledge of the agreement said. Belinelli and the Kings reached an agreement in the morning while the team was meeting with Rondo in Sacramento. A few hours later, Rondo decided to join him in California's capital city. Rondo, a four-time All-Star who is trying to recover from a brief but tumultuous tenure in Dallas, joins a franchise that has been one of the NBA's most chaotic recently. The Kings are hoping the 29-year-old Rondo can return to the player he was early in his career and revive the struggling franchise. Rondo was benched several times last season by Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle after coming over in a December trade from Boston, where he helped the Celtics win the 2008 title and return to the NBA Finals in 2010.
