Nets thrilled for Vince Carter’s number retirement: ‘One of the best to do it’

Ziaire Williams is looking forward to honoring one of the players on his NBA Mt. Rushmore on Saturday at Barclays Center.

“Definitely top of the charts. Him, [Michael] Jordan,” Williams said. “I feel it’s like a big drop off [after that], you know? I don’t know (who) the next two are, but he’s at the top of that list, for sure.”

The Nets will be raising Vince Carter’s jersey to the rafters before Saturday’s game against the Heat.

On Thursday night, the Nets had a red-carpet premiere of “From Daytona Beach to Brooklyn,” a documentary film of Carter as part of the team’s “From ____ to Brooklyn” series.

And then last night going to the premiere of the documentary was really good to see him, just show him love and give him his flowers.”
