WAILUKU, Hawaii -- WHEN LOS ANGELES Rams receiver Puka Nacua stepped off the plane in Maui on Monday for mandatory minicamp, he was greeted by a member of the welcoming committee with a big hug and a "thank you so much for everything you do for the Polynesian community."
Nacua, whose Polynesian background has made him beloved in Hawaii, said practicing in Maui for minicamp "feels like home."
The Rams traveled to Maui for minicamp in part for team bonding and to help a community affected by devastating wildfires nearly two years ago.
