Vince Carter wants at least 2 more seasons in NBA

The Dallas Mavericks and Miami Heat are showing that the veterans aren’t ready to turn the page just yet. And you can count former Orlando Magic guard Vince Carter among the latter.

So far, 34-year-old Vince Carter completed 13 seasons in the NBA with the Toronto Raptors, New Jersey Nets, Orlando Magic and currently with the Phoenix Suns.

I caught up with Vince Carter at the Dick Vitale Gala reception in Sarasota, where North Carolina coach Roy Williams was being honored, for a few brief questions. Namely, how much longer does he see his NBA career lasting?

“I’ve never been a person to put a cap on my ability or my career. I’m just gonna play it as it goes,” Vince Carter said. “I still plan on playing 15 years, that’s been my goal since Day 1 and I’m gonna try to accomplish that.”
