Locked On Raptors - Daily Podcast On The Toronto Raptors
Sports:Basketball
In Episode 1609, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob (Sportsnet, Raptors in 7) to chat about Toronto Raptors icon Vince Carter getting the call to the Basketball Hall-of-Fame and his substantial legacy in Toronto and Canadian basketball history. Off the top, they discuss their reactions to the announcment, his importance to the history of the Raptors, and how their feelings on his departure from Toronto have evolved over the time. Next, they dig into the question of whether or not, in line with his HoF induction and the 30th anniversary of the Raptors, Carter should become the first Raptor to get his number to retired some time during the 2024-25 season. Lastly, they answer a couple listener questions about Carter's status as the greatest dunker of all time, and some of the stand-out game from his career that newer fans should prioritize watching to get a grasp of Carter's immmense impact at his peak.
