An Associated Press story reports that former Kentucky guard Rajon Rondo and current Boston Celtics star Rajon Rondo withdrew his name for consideration for the final U.S. national basketball team roster. Rondo had started for the Americans in the first two exhibition games, then surprisingly didn’t start at all Sunday when the U.S. edged Spain. The final 12-man roster set Tuesday includes: Kevin Durant, Derrick Rose, Rudy Gay, Lamar Odom, Chauncey Billups, Danny Granger, Russell Westbrook, Eric Gordon, Stephen Curry, Kevin Love, Tyson Chandler and Andre Iguodala. A bit surprising Rondo didn’t crack that roster.
