Vince Carter Missed Antawn Jamison Warning Him About 1998 Draft Night Trade

Posted Jun 24, 2017
Antawn Jamison was selected by the Raptors at No. 4 and Vince Carter went to the Warriors at No. 5 in the 1998 NBA Draft. The two were immediately dealt for each other. Jamison knew about the deal before Carter was selected. When Carter was drafted, Jamison tried to deliver the news to Carter, but Vinsanity's mind was too jumbled to register what was happening.
