Raptors to honour Vince Carter on Wednesday

The day has finally come. The Toronto Raptors will be honouring Vince Carter on Wednesday night when the Raptors face off against the Memphis Grizzles at the Air Canada Centre. The Raptors greatest hero and most hated villain will get a tribute video honouring the former Raptor star during a first quarter timeout.

Like it or not Raptors fans (and many of you won't), the Raptors will play a video on Wednesday night looking back at Vince Carter's time in Toronto. Carter will be in town with the Memphis Grizzlies, making his only appearance in Canada this season.

It's the 20th anniversary celebration of the Raptors franchise, and Vince Carter was a big proponent of that history whether we like it or not. It only seems fitting that he gets honoured  on Wednesday night even though he's burned the Raptors fanbase in his final days as a Raptor.

What do you think, is it still too early for the Raptors to honour Vince Carter?
