Former Kentucky Wildcat Rajon Rondo was selected to the 2010 NBA All-Star game as a reserve. Rondo, who played two years of ball at UK, will make his All-Star debut on Feb. 14.

Rondo, now in his fourth season with the Boston Celtics, is averaging 14.2 points, 9.7 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 2.5 steals per game. The former first-round pick has evolved from the shadows of Boston’s “Big Three” (Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen) and established himself as a bonafide star at the game’s highest level.

With Rondo running the point, the Celtics are off to a 29-13 to the season with a seven-game lead in the Atlantic Division.
