Kristaps Porzingis is only starting to make his mark in the NBA, but back in Europe, the 20-year-old is already a legend.

Porzingis visited his former club Sevilla on Sunday and was treated to a standing ovation by his fans in Spain.

Prior to joining the New York Knicks as the No. 4 pick last summer, Porzingis played five seasons with Sevilla. He started off on the junior team in 2011, before working his way up to the main squad in 2012 as a 16-year-old.
