Vincent Lamar Carter was born on January 26, 1977 in Daytona Beach, Florida. He was the 5th pick of the 1998 drafts, passed some of the great players like Jason Williams, Dirk Nowitzki and Paul Pierce.. And he is still with us and playing basketball in NBA.. He has listed height 6 ft 6 in (1.98 m) and weight 220 lb (100 kg). reached NBA All-Star 8 times between 2000 and 2007, he also won the NBA Dunk contest in 2000.
In his 1481 NBA games he averaged 17.2 points, 4.4 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.0 steal per game. He also averaged only 1.7 turnover per game.. This looks like a Hall of Famer performance right?!

Last year i have watched his games (I have watched him since 1999) and he wasn't seem like +40 aged. Ofcourse he played some limited minutes but i can easily say that he can play, make dunks and makes great shots from down town.. I hope we would watch him healthy this season..
Lately Nike brand honoured him with a new sneaker, which is "Nike Shox BB4" from his “Air Canada” days with Toronto Raptors.👇👇
He had so many great plays and dunks in 21 years, some of them was really cruel. This is my favourite Vince Carter dunk, which he produced with USA Basketball team in 2000 Olympics.. The community named it "Dunk Of Death" here you can watch it below 👇👇
