Vince Carter cites family and life after basketball for finishing career with Atlanta Hawks
Posted Sep 9, 2019
Vince Carter said family and life after basketball were the main reasons he chose to return to the Hawks for his record 22nd and final NBA season. “It’s a great opportunity. I can still work on life after basketball, broadcasting and just being around that. Close to family. When you are going into your last year, you just want it to be a smooth ride for everyone.”
