Just a couple of cousins enjoying some football. And Bills Mafia is making the most of it. NBA cousins, Vince Carter and Tracy McGrady were at the Bills Stadium in New York to soak in some Monday Night Football. The Buffalo Bills were playing against the Jacksonville Jaguars shortly after the Toronto Raptors dropped some major news. Vinsanity and T-Mac were sporting matching Bills colors which thrilled the home crowd. And you know the NBA legends were thrilled too because, as of this writing, the Bills were leading 40-10.

Although both are Florida natives and were teammates under the Toronto Raptors, the Bills had their loyalty. They had “Bills Ownership Guest” passes over their Bills sweatshirts.

Before the game, they hung out with Josh Allen and Von Miller on the field. They’d later join soccer pro, Jozy Altidore who spent majority of his career with Toronto FC, for the rest of the game. So it appears Toronto was getting repped big time this game. They would be celebratory as the Bills won 47-10.

It’s extra special to have Vince Carter in these parts. The 8x All Star and serial posterizer is finally getting his overdue honor all at once. He’s headlining the 2024 class which will be inducted into the Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame.

McGrady, a HoFer since 2017, would never skip that occasion. Especially the Hall of Fame induction given that Carter confirmed he asked his cousin to induct him.

“I can confirm T-Mac [Tracy McGrady] will be there, he’s one of the guys that I asked, and he was like ‘Hell yeah, I was waiting for you to call me!‘” Carter said. And McCrady better mark his calendar for some other big days.

Tracy McGrady will headline the Vince Carter Festival

Tracy McGrady has long maintained his cuz should’ve been a HoFer whose number was in the rafters long ago. He’s finally getting his wish. While they were enjoying football, the Raptors made a huge announcement – they’re retiring Vince Carter’s #15 this year.

The Raptors have set the date of November 2, 2024, during a game against the Sacramento Kings. The event coincides with the Raptors’ 30th anniversary in the NBA and will be their first jersey retirement. Kyle Lowry’s No. 7 is expected to be the next one retired.
