I hope the fans give him a huge ovation when he goes back to Toronto... first championship ever in the NBA and first in 25 years since the bluejays is a huge accomplishment.
hopefully, the Raptors will be able to make their own UFA splash in 2020-21

I don't know if there will be a bigger, more celebrated return of a player to their former team/city.
