Twitter reacts to news 41-year-old Vince Carter will join Hawks


At the age of 41 years young, it looks like Vince Carter is bouncing to what will be the eighth team he's joining for his 21st season in the NBA. According to reports, Carter agreed on a one-year deal with the Atlanta Hawks.

It's pretty phenomenal that Carter continues to sign with different teams that have no chance of winning championships this late in his career. You'd think that he'd want to chase after his first ring, but it seems like he's just playing for the love of the game. Per ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, the Hawks want to bring in Carter to be around their young guys.

Twitter reacted by pointing out the incredible age difference Carter will have with new teammate rookie Trae Young and by admiring (and joking) about how long he has been in the league. It's almost like the eight-time All-Star's career will never end.
