Carter “Injured” in Raptors Loss, Out 2 Games
Toronto Raptors all-star guard Vince Carter has injured his ankle this week, straining his left Achilles tendon. The alleged injury was suffered in the recent 90-86 overtime loss in Detroit, where the embattled Raptor was shooting 2-for-8 with five points and one assist. Carter was making a move toward the basket – which he would have probably missed anyway – when he dropped to the floor clutching his leg. The injury is bad news for the 7-14 Raptors, who need to trade Carter as soon as possible. Carter, who is frequently criticized for being such a nancy, is undergoing tests and will now miss at least two games. With Vinsanity out, the Raps now have a chance to improve on their sad 2-12 road record.
