When OG Anunoby takes the court in Toronto for the first time since being traded to the Phoenix Suns, he’s not sure how the fans will react. He spent the first six seasons of his career with the Raptors, becoming a fan favorite for his tenacious defense and infectious energy. But after requesting a trade this past summer, he was dealt to the Suns in a package that brought back a first-round pick and Dario Saric.

Anunoby was a key piece of Toronto’s success during his time with the team. He was a starter on the Raptors’ 2019 NBA championship team, and he helped them reach the playoffs every season he was with the franchise. Anunoby was also a fan favorite, known for his hard work and dedication.

But Anunoby’s time in Toronto came to an end this past summer. He requested a trade after the Raptors missed the playoffs last season, and he was eventually dealt to the Suns. The trade was a surprise to many, but it made sense for both teams. The Raptors got a first-round pick and a veteran player in Saric, while the Suns got a young, talented defender in Anunoby.

It’s unclear how the Raptors fans will react when Anunoby returns to Toronto. Some fans may still be upset that he asked for a trade, while others may be happy to see him again. Anunoby is a popular player, so it’s likely that he will receive a warm welcome.

But it’s also possible that some fans will boo Anunoby. He did, after all, request a trade from the only NBA team he’d ever known. And he’s now playing for a team that is considered to be one of the Raptors’ biggest rivals.

Anunoby has said that he’s not sure how the fans will react when he returns to Toronto. But he’s also said that he’s looking forward to playing in front of them again.

“I’m not sure how the fans are going to react,” Anunoby said. “But I’m excited to play in front of them again. I had a lot of great times in Toronto, and I’m grateful for the support I received from the fans.”

Anunoby is a professional, and he’s going to approach his return to Toronto with the same intensity and focus that he always brings to the game. But it’s also understandable that he’s a little bit nervous about how the fans will receive him.

It’s impossible to say for sure how the Raptors fans will react when OG Anunoby returns to Toronto. But one thing is for sure: it’s going to be an emotional night for both the player and the fans.

Anunoby is a popular player who gave the Raptors many great memories. But he also asked for a trade, and he’s now playing for a rival team. It’s up to the fans to decide how they want to welcome him back.
