Before the season, the Chicago Bulls' marketing team decided Jan. 9 against the Oklahoma City Thunder would be Rajon Rondo bobblehead night. It made sense because the game should have featured a point guard battle between Rondo and Russell Westbrook. Unfortunately, Rondo was benched for a fifth straight game.

Since they didn't want to ruin a perfectly good promotion, the Bulls still handed out Rondo bobbleheads to their fans, who have already started to sell them on eBay.

To complete the failed promotion, every Bulls player except Rondo played in the 109-94 loss.

Rondo has been benched since the second half of a 111-101 loss to the Pacers on Dec. 30. He has had discussions with Bulls management about his situation but appears to be out of the rotation for the foreseeable future. And he if ends up getting traded or bought out, at least Rondo's short Bulls tenure will always be remembered by his bobblehead.
