Now in his first season as a Brooklyn Nets television analyst, Carter retired in 2020 after an NBA-record 22 seasons at age 43 and was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame last year.

Much needed bounce back for Heat in Brooklyn as they beat the Nets 106-97. Tyler Herro continues all-star season with 25 points. Much more Bam-like game with 17 points and 16 rebounds.

Carter was originally acquired by the Nets during the 2004-2005 season in a trade with the Raptors that involved Alonzo Mourning, Eric Williams and Aaron Williams being sent to the Raptors. Mourning never suited up for the Raptors, securing a contract buyout and re-joining the Miami Heat.

The Brooklyn Nets have not had much to be happy about this season due to how much the team is struggling with inconsistent play and injuries throughout the year. However, Saturday gave them a chance to shake things up as they were able to retire Vince Carter's Nets jersey into the rafters of Barclays Center for the rest of the fanbase to see forever.

Where Carter’s retired jersey hangs in Barclays Center is even more special. The Nets placed it next to Julius Erving’s, Carter’s idol, who stared for the Nets from 1973-76. He was the same man who introduced Carter into the Hall of Fame back in October.

Brooklyn Nets legend Vince Carter has revealed his top three NBA players of all time, as he played against them.

The NBA trade deadline is Feb. 6 and several teams are looking around, scanning the market for ways to upgrade their rosters. That includes the Memphis Grizzlies, who are in one of the most interesting positions. The Grizzlies (31-16) entered play Wednesday as the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference.

Pittsburgh closed on a 14-2 run to overcome a late 63-59 deficit and send UNC to yet another frustrating defeat.
