Vince Carter to Be First Toronto Raptor with Retired Jersey

The Raptors will retire Vince Carter's No. 15 jersey on November 2, recognizing his impact on the team and Canadian basketball.

Vince Carter, 47, will have his No. 15 jersey retired by the Toronto Raptors, becoming the first player in the team's history to receive this honor.
The jersey retirement ceremony is scheduled for November 2, ahead of Carter's induction into the Basketball Hall of Fame next month.
Carter is credited with raising the profile of the Raptors and sparking enthusiasm for basketball across Canada during his tenure with the team.
Despite his significant contributions, the decision to retire Carter's jersey is controversial due to his contentious departure from the Raptors in 2004.
Carter, an eight-time NBA all-star, had a 22-season career and is the only NBA player to have played in four different decades.
