Okay, so you get into Penn early decision: It is a great day! You run and tell your family, your friends ... and a player who used to play for your favorite basketball team and is now playing against it?

Evan Turner used to play for the Philadelphia 76ers until he was traded last season and returned to play in Philadelphia for the Boston Celtics on Monday night. While fans booed him when he was on the court, Turner was well-received before the game by the 76ers fans.

A. Sherrod Blakely, a Celtics beat reporter, shared the following anecdote in his story after the game:

Turner recalled seeing one young fan who always cheered him on when he played for the Sixers. Another one of his fans came up to him to tell him she was accepted to the University of Pennsylvania.

"That was cool," Turner said. "It's on you to see what you're going to take from it. I pay attention to the positive."

The only question that remains is what the former Ohio State star thinks about the Red and Blue.
