Pistons' Dwane Casey braces for 'business trip' in return to Toronto

Auburn Hills — When the NBA schedule was released, it might have been one of the first dates that made Pistons coach Dwane Casey pause.

Nov. 14. At Toronto.

One can always go home, but in Casey’s case, Toronto isn’t the typical homecoming. It’s more like a bitter divorce, where one spouse blames the other for everything and finds a new mate.

And when the first ex-spouse returns for a visit, there’s a certain awkwardness.

That’s what happened when Raptors president Masai Ujiri fired Casey in May.

Welcome to Casey’s first game back in Toronto against his former team.
