Vince Carter joining YES as part-time Nets analyst after ESPN split


Vinsanity is coming to YES for a handful of Nets games, The Post has learned.

Vince Carter, who was let go by ESPN this summer, will analyze a small package of games this season.

Sarah Kustok and Richard Jefferson will remain the analysts on the bulk of Nets’ telecasts.

The Nets will have more regional sports telecasts this season as they aren’t as appealing nationally without stars like Kevin Durant.

YES is a good outfit for Carter to join as it has rejuvenated broadcast careers before.

Years ago, Mark Jackson was originally let go by ESPN, then worked on the Nets on YES, which resulted in a second opportunity at ESPN, where he was on the No. 1 team for a long run until being let go this summer.

Jackson is likely going to call some Knicks games for MSG Network this season.

Carter isn’t the only new addition to the Nets’ TV booth.

YES will also have Noah Eagle on play-by-play when the lead duo of longtime Nets voice Ian Eagle — Noah’s father — and Ryan Ruocco are both working nationally.
