Rajon Rondo (shin) will not play Friday, the Celtics report.
Rondo (shin) won't play Friday versus the Bobcats.
Analysis:
After the possibility of Rondo playing in all of Boston's remaining games was in play, he felt he was in too much pain from a shin bruise to play Friday. His absence will open up more minutes for Phil Pressey and Jerryd Bayless at point guard.
