Vince Carter is known from Daytona Beach to Chapel Hill to Toronto for his high-flying dunks. After facing the Orlando Magic on April 5 – a team he grew up watching and played for – the 42-year-old Carter said he wants to play one more season in the NBA. If the Hawks or another team pick him up next season, it would be his 22nd season, an NBA record. (Daytona Times)
