These first two pics are screenshots from Instagram posts on Thursday (notice the location):
Friday evening this story broke:
Rajon Rondo underwent successful surgical fixation of a left metacarpal fracture this morning at NEBH. Release: http://t.co/UwP57346df
— Boston Celtics (@celtics) September 26, 2014
Rajon Rondo told Celtics he broke his hand slipping in the shower, source told ESPN. Broke one bone in back of his hand. Out 6-8 weeks.

Shortly after, this appeared on Barstool Sports:
"Reader Email: 'Rondo was at a trampoline park in Billerica last night. Might’ve been where he broke his hand. Here he is with my buddy who works there.'
Yes this was definitely yesterday. The place’s name is Altitude Trampoline Park. Here are tweets from people who saw him there yesterday."
Also, notice that Rondo is wearing the same shirt at the trampoline place that he did at Wahlburgers. Pretty suspicious, right?
Now here's where it gets even weirder; another Instagram screenshot, this time from Friday night:
Again, check the location. Did Rondo really just fly to LA? Training Camp starts next week, and even though he's obviously not playing, you'd think he'd be there for media day on Monday. This Instagram post could possibly be old or not real, but that wouldn't make any sense either.
What are the chances Rondo took off to hide on the other side of the country because he doesn't want to explain to anybody about how he broke his hand?
UPDATE:
I've been told on twitter by someone who says they heard "second hand" that Rondo did not jump on the trampolines himself.
@RedsArmy_John @LucidSportsFan Rondo didn't even use the equipment. His kids jumped around

@LucidSportsFan someone that works there.

@LucidSportsFan not first hand. Let's say second hand

UPDATE PART II:
For what it's worth, a pair of Altitude Trampoline Park employees now saying Rondo did not suffer injury there. pic.twitter.com/TpAc5Svokf
