The Chicago Bulls signed veteran point guard Rajon Rondo on Sunday to a two-year contract. Despite mixed reaction to Rondo joining the Bulls, there are multiple reasons why the move will work.

The Chicago Bulls finally made a free agent signing as the team agreed to a two-year contract with veteran point guard Rajon Rondo on Sunday.

Rondo met with the Bulls on Friday during the first day of NBA Free Agency. On Sunday, Rondo and the Bulls agreed to a two-year contract worth $28 million. There have been conflicting reports on the second year of Rondo’s deal with the Bulls. The initial report was that the second year of Rondo’s contract was partially guaranteed. Though, the recent suggestion is that there is a mutual option for the second year of Rondo’s deal with the Bulls.

While Rondo is a four-time NBA All-Star, he has seemingly been regressing since the 2012-2013 season. Not to mention, the Bulls’ mark Rondo’s fourth team over the course of the past two seasons. Rondo has the reputation of being a coach killer considering his inability to co-exist with Brad Stevens on the Celtics and Rick Carlisle on the Dallas Mavericks. It is also worth noting that the Sacramento Kings did not want Rondo back after he had only spent one season with the team.

For a team that is rebuilding with the plan of getting younger and more athletic, Rondo is certainly a questionable fit. But, that does not mean that the signing will not work out for the Bulls. In fact, here are three reasons why the signing will work out for the Bulls.
