The Chicago Bulls as the Suicide Squad
Dr. Harleen Quinzel/Harley Quinn: Rajon Rondo
Rajon Rondo as Harley Quinn is like putting hot sauce on your food at one of the famous Harold’s Chicken locations in Chicago. The match just makes perfect sense.

Rondo fits as Dr. Harleen Quinzel because of two things: 1) He’s been known to be outside of the right mindset while playing in the NBA on numerous occasions and 2) He’s literally crazy. (The man played with a dislocated elbow during the 2011 postseason and still dished out seven assists in a win over Dwyane Wade and the Miami Heat.)
In the comic book world, Harley Quinn (known originally by her name above) was influenced by The Joker’s way of life as his psychiatrist inside the famous Arkham Aslyum. Joker’s ability to twist her mind created arguably the most famous sidekick in the history of super-villains.
The role seemingly fits Rondo to a T. He’s done some good in his career. Just look at his influence in the Chicago community already as a mentor to the younger generation. There’s also some bad. Getting sent home by your coaches and team during a playoff series because you “quit” on them isn’t a positive, plus calling a gay NBA official a horrible slur during a game makes you look like quite a villain.
