Former Orange stars Wes Johnson and Jonny Flynn came back to the Carrier Dome for a homecoming celebration.

Wesley Johnson was all smiles after Friday night's exhibition game against the Detroit Pistons. The rookie wasn’t grinning because his team won the game, but because he was happy to be home again.

“It was a lot of fun,” Johnson said. “ I was tired and a lot of adrenaline was flowing, but I had fun. Seeing that 'S' on the court brought back a lot of good memories.”

Welcome back, Jonny
