Rondo undecided on overseas option

Rajon Rondo hasn't sounded overly optimistic about the thought of playing overseas if the NBA lockout continues into the upcoming season, but he has apparently set a target date of Oct. 1 on making a final decision [1]. "It just depends," Rondo said in Beaumont, Texas at the summer camp of former teammate Kendrick Perkins. "My agent and I will sit down and we'll talk about it, and discuss what's best for me."

It's unclear what kind of options there may be, even for a player of Rondo's stature. To date, New Jersey's Deron Williams has been the only prominent player to sign with a European team and it appears that Kobe Bryant's flirtation with Beisktas -- the same team that signed Williams -- is coming to an end [2].
