Raptors join Nets in retiring Vince Carter's No. 15 jersey

Vince Carter's jersey will be taking flight to the rafters in two arenas this season.

Carter, who is going into the Hall of Fame next month, will have his jersey retired by the Toronto Raptors on Nov. 2, when the Raptors face the Atlanta Hawks, sources confirmed to ESPN, making him the first player in franchise history to have his number retired.

He's also set to get the same honor from the Brooklyn Nets this season, after they officially announced last week that they will raise Carter's No. 15 to the rafters on Jan.
