Vince Carter College Degree
Vince Carter College Degree
The University of North Carolina three years after leaving early for the NBA draft and people seem to snub him for this. Garbed in predominantly white, a sheepishly smiling Carter answered questions here and there. It doesn’t work that way in my mind. It was just as important as playing in this game. It was beautiful to hear the hint of defiance in his words, an athlete of his caliber using this playoff game to make a stand and sell something to kids beyond $100 jerseys and shoes.
Carter is a product of the University of North Carolina, a school rich with basketball greats present and past. Picked fifth overall by the Golden State Warriors in the 1998 NBA Draft, he was traded to the Toronto Raptors in exchange of co-Tar Heel Antawn Jamison.
