Brooklyn Nets legend Vince Carter has revealed his top three NBA players of all time, as he played against them. The NBA‘s age-old debate about the greatest player of all time continues to captivate fans and analysts alike.
Carter's No. 15 will be retired at halftime of Brooklyn's game against the Heat. His jersey was retired by the Toronto Raptors on Nov. 2 against the Atlanta Hawks, another former team of Carter's. His Nets jersey retirement was announced back in September, so fans and the organization have been anticipating this moment for a long time.
