After an offseason of furious player movement -- including eight 2019 All-Stars changing teams -- one intriguing storyline of this NBA season will be how players are received by fans when they return to the cities they left.
Some will be easier to predict than others. Kyrie Irving in Boston? That reunion was pushed back to March 3 because of an injury, but it won't be subtle. Anthony Davis and Kristaps Porzingis already felt the wrath of fans scorned. Kawhi Leonard, on the other hand, received a hero's welcome when he returned to Toronto, despite breaking the hearts of Raptors fans when he left for the Clippers.
