Vince Carter's No. 15 Nets Jersey to Be Retired at Jan. 25 Game vs. Heat

The Brooklyn Nets will retire the No. 15 jersey of Hall of Famer Vince Carter during a Jan. 25 home game against the Miami Heat.

The game is set to tip off at 6 p.m. The Nets said in a press release that there would be further programming details for the retirement ceremony shared "at a later date."

Carter urged fans to come to Barclays Center for the ceremony in a video shared by the Nets on Thursday.

Carter played parts of five seasons with the Nets while the team was located in New Jersey. He set a single-season franchise record by totaling 2,070 points in 2006-07.

He averaged 23.6 points, 5.8 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1.2 steals through 374 games as a Net before the team relocated to Brooklyn in 2012.

Carter is one of just three Nets players to represent the franchise in at least three All-Star Games.

He also ranks third only to Brook Lopez and Buck Williams for the all-time franchise lead with 8,834 career points in the regular season.

Also having appeared in 27 playoff games for the Nets, Carter trails only Kevin Durant for a franchise-high average of 26.0 points per postseason contest.

Carter's No. 15 will mark the seventh jersey retired by the Nets, joining the No. 5 of his former teammate Jason Kidd in the rafters at Barclays. Kidd's jersey was retired in October 2013.

The Nets have also retired Drazen Petrovic's No. 3, John Williamson's No. 23, Bill Melchionni's No. 25, Julius Erving's No. 32 and Buck Williams' No. 52.

Carter was enshrined in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in August for his work with Team USA as well as his accomplishments with the Nets and seven other NBA franchises, most famously the Toronto Raptors. There could be more jersey retirement ceremonies in Carter's future should the Raptors decide to present him with a similar honor at Scotiabank Arena.
