Brown is most known for being banned by the NCAA and NBA for his involvement in a point-shaving scandal. Due to the ban, he ended up in the ABA, making four All-Star teams and winning three championships with the Pacers. He was such a great player that Pacers legend Reggie Miller once called Brown "the greatest player to never play in the NBA."
Now in his first season as a Brooklyn Nets television analyst, Carter retired in 2020 after an NBA-record 22 seasons at age 43 and was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame last year.
