Vince Carter Looking For $60 Million Extension

Hooped Up | April 6, 2007

Vince Carter’s agent had a brief meeting with Nets owner Bruce Ratner on Wednesday night at the Meadowlands, and though little came of it, it was made clear to Ratner that Carter would like to proceed with discussions on a contract extension that will keep him with the Nets through the 2010-2011 season. Agent Kurt Schoeppler, who has not returned phone calls all season, is presumably authorized to ask the Nets for the same three-year, $60 million extension Paul Pierce received last summer, according to industry sources who demanded anonymity so that they do not influence the negotiation.”
