Boston Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo was back in the starting lineup for Friday's game against Toronto after missing the previous three with a strained left hamstring.

Boston coach Doc Rivers said Rondo was 100 percent before the game, but was still uncertain if he'd play because the team has three days off before its next game Tuesday in Cleveland.

Rondo, the team's playmaker and spark, is averaging 14.3 assists and 11.2 points.

The team was 2-1 while he was out.
