Kawhi Leonard is now back in his native Los Angeles, but some folks aren’t happy to see him there. Leonard could have chosen the Los Angeles Lakers this summer, but instead went for the Clippers, signing up with Doc Rivers and adding Paul George.
That disappointed many Lakers fans, and on Sunday they got to voice their displeasure toward Leonard in person.
As the L.A. Rams took on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Leonard was in attendance at the Coliseum. After the newest Clipper was shown on the video board, La fans decided to boo him.

They say you can never go home again, but this is ridiculous.
Things may be forgiven — or at least soften — for Leonard if he wins a championship with the Clippers. But until that happens, and until people can say things like “I’ve always rooted for both teams!” expect Leonard to get this kind of reception from Lakers fans.
