The New Wave series celebrates the achievements of the world's top young athletes, and Vince Carter, Toronto Raptors All-Star dunker, is definitely leading the "next wave" in sports. A member of the U.S. Dream Team at the 2000 Olympics, Carter grew up in Daytona Beach, Florida, and went to the University of North Carolina. He makes headlines both for his playing abilities and for his close friendship with his cousin and recent-Raptor defector Tracy McGrady.
