Kevin Durant’s flight to the Warriors was the biggest single move of the NBA summer, but the biggest *trend* has been stars returning to their hometowns -- Dwyane Wade’s to Chicago, Joakim Noah to New York, even Jeff Teague getting traded back into his parents’ basement in Indianapolis. But wait, what about the biggest NBA star who is *from* the home of the Warriors?
