He's the NBA's old man, but the game still makes Vince Carter feel like a kid

Posted Jan 12, 2019
The mornings are the worst. That's when Vince Carter feels every one of his almost 21 NBA seasons. "Some mornings I wake up and you see me walking into shootaround or meetings and the young guys are all 'You all right?"' Carter said. "And I'm just 'Yeah, you guys don't understand.' I think that's the hardest thing." The 41-year-old was back in Toronto on Tuesday. (CBC Sports)
