Vince Carter's presence will be felt in the NBA for years to come

Posted Mar 19, 2020
Vince Carter did not want to chase a championship in the twilight of his career. He chose instead to be a role model for a team in a building phase. It was a rough season for the Atlanta Hawks, but he remained on the bench supporting his teammates. Carter may not have gotten his ring, but he got respect from players, coaches and owners across the NBA. (Daily Tar Heel)
