The 20 Worst Trades in NBA History

19. Toronto Raptors trade Vince Carter to the Nets

With his high-flying dunks that earned him the nickname “Air Canada”, Vince Carter turned Toronto into a basketball town. That is why it was so shocking when trade rumors began to swell around Carter after six incredible seasons as a Raptor. Carter was eventually traded to the New Jersey Nets, where he continued his All-Star level success on the court.

Part of the trade that went back to Toronto was Alonzo Mourning, but he never reported to Canada and was bought out of his contract.
