The Raptors will retire Carter’s No. 15 earlier than the Nets, TSN reported. The ceremony is reportedly set for Nov. 2 when the team hosts the Sacramento Kings. He will be the first Raptors player in franchise history to have his jersey number retired.
Toronto is celebrating its 30th season in the NBA this year.
The Nets will raise Carter’s jersey to its rafters in the Barclays Center on Jan. 25 against the Miami Heat.

The Golden State Warriors selected Carter with the No. 5 pick of the 1998 NBA Draft. He was subsequently traded to the Raptors for Antawn Jamison. Carter quickly became one of the most electrifying stars in the NBA with his impressive dunking ability not seen since the days of Dominique Wilkins.
He won the Rookie of the Year in 1999 and played just over five seasons with Toronto. He was on the team when they made the playoffs for the first time in franchise history.
Then, the team made a massive trade with the New Jersey Nets during the 2004-05 season. Carter then became one of the most-talked about players in Nets history. He brought down the Continental Airlines Arena and Izod Center with dazzling dunks and was a perfect one-two combination with Jason Kidd.
He played in East Rutherford for four full seasons before he signed with the Orlando Magic.
