An explosive 6-7 swingman, Carter improved steadily in his three years at North Carolina and earned First Team All-Atlantic Coast Conference and Second Team All-America honors in 1997-98. Carter averaged 7.5 ppg as a freshman and 13.0 rpg as a sophomore before coming into his own as a junior. He averaged 15.6 points and 5.1 rebounds per game and led the ACC with a field goal percentage of .590, including marks of 18.2 ppg, 5.8 rpg and .590 in the NCAA Tournament. He tallied a season-high 24 points (two shy of his career high, set against Wake Forest as a sophomore) in the tournament against UNC-Charlotte and netted 21 points in the national semifinals against Utah, shooting 10-for-16 against the Utes. He was selected fifth overall by the Golden State Warriors in the 1998 NBA Draft as an early entry candidate out of North Carolina, Vince Carter was immediately traded to the Toronto Raptors along with cash for the rights to college teammate Antawn Jamison, the fourth overall selection in the draft.
