Vince Carter: 'I have a couple of years left'
Vince Carter believes he has at least a couple of quality NBA seasons left in his old legs. At 37 years old in his 16th NBA season, Carter ranks among the NBA’s most productive reserves, averaging 12.0 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.8 assists as the Mavericks’ sixth man.

Vince Carter's revival puts him in the running for Sixth Man of the Year
Carter's struggles to start his season made some people worry whether he was done, but he's come back with a bang and might even make a push for Sixth Man of the Year.

Can Carter build Sixth Man of Year case?
DALLAS -- Want a sleeper candidate for Sixth Man of the Year? Take a look at the Mavericks’ old man. If 37-year-old Vince Carter’s February foreshadows the rest of his regular season, the 1998-99 Rookie of the Year and eight-time All-Star should at least be considered for the award that recognizes the league’s most impactful reserve. After all, the race is wide open if the Clippers’ Jamal Crawford ends up ineligible for the award because he starts more games than he comes off the bench.
