Celtics face rest of season without Rondo

Rajon Rondo was having his best season for the struggling Boston Celtics.

He was averaging career highs in points and rebounds. He led the NBA in assists and triple-doubles by big margins. He was voted the starting point guard for the Eastern Conference in next month's All-Star Game.

"He's our guy that's orchestrating everything for us," guard Courtney Lee said. "He's our leader."
