Vince Carter literally freezing body for preservation

Posted Jul 19, 2015
There's only one way to keep Vince Carter's body in the condition needed to play professional basketball these days: freezing him from shoulder-to-toe. Vince, you think you might need to crank this sucker down a few Kelvin and just stay chilled until next April? I jest, of course, because I love Vince Carter. But it's pretty funny that medical technology now allows players to cryo-freeze their bodies to help with recovery. (Grizzly Bear Blues)
