The Toronto Raptors have officially announced that they will retire Vince Carter’s iconic No. 15 jersey on November 2, 2024, during their home game against the Sacramento Kings. This historic event will be the first jersey retirement in the franchise’s 30-year history, taking place as part of the Raptors' milestone season celebrations.

Key Details About the Ceremony

Vince Carter, known as "Half-Man, Half-Amazing," played a transformative role in elevating basketball’s popularity across Canada. Drafted in 1998, Carter quickly became a household name, earning accolades such as NBA Rookie of the Year and five consecutive NBA All-Star appearances during his time with the Raptors. His unforgettable performances, including his legendary win in the 2000 NBA Slam Dunk Contest, solidified his place in basketball history.

His influence helped inspire a new generation of Canadian basketball players and fans.
