ATLANTA -- Vince Carter plans to use his experience to lead the Atlanta Hawks by example.
As he enters his 21st season, Carter has scored 24,868 NBA points – a total that surpasses the combined career output of the other 14 players on the Hawks' young roster.
To wit, the Toronto Raptors selected Carter with the 5th overall pick of the 1998 NBA Draft. Later that summer, Hawks Kevin Huerter and Trae Young (the 5th pick of 2018 Draft) were born.
Has it ever gotten awkward for Carter to join up with teammates who are young enough to be his kids?
