Posted Jul 23, 2017
Vince Carter joined Sportscenter last night to discuss his decision to sign with the Sacramento Kings. “With these young guys, one thing I was impressed with leading up to the draft, and seeing these guys before I even knew that I was going to play in Sacramento, is that they’re hungry,” said Carter in the interview. “They want to win, and they’re willing to learn.” (Tar Heel Blog)
