Los Angeles Lakers veteran guard Rajon Rondo will be out of the lineup for a month after undergoing surgery on his right hand, the NBA team announced Friday. Rondo injured a ligament in his right ring finger during the Lakers' 127-101 win over the Golden State Warriors on Christmas. Rondo had 15 points, 10 assists and five rebounds in the game.

The Lakers said the surgery was a success but Rondo still has four to five weeks of rehabilitation to go. "Rajon Rondo, who suffered a Grade 3 sprain to his right ring finger during Tuesday's game at Golden State, underwent successful surgery today to repair a ligament," the team said in a statement. The Lakers are already without LeBron James, who injured his groin against the Warriors.
