Vinsanity turns 39

Vince Carter turns 39-years-old today. The 17-year NBA veteran has had a great career, and is considered by many to be the greatest dunker of all-time. He’s also an 8-time All-Star, an Olympic gold medalist, Rookie of the Year (1999), and an NBA slam dunk contest champion (2000). Earlier this season, he reminded us all that he’s still got it:

Vinsanity has gracefully transitioned from a star player to a role player over the years, and he’s still looking to capture his first NBA championship. He’s currently averaging 3.4 points per game for the Memphis Grizzlies, who are 5th in the Western Conference standings.
