UNDERDOG
NBA ROLE: ATHLETIC 4/5
John Henson’s arms are much, much longer than yours; and what does Henson use ’em for?: getting loose as a weak side shot blocker – anticipates plays well and uses his quick feet to rotate effectively; tremendous wingspan, uses size effectively to alter shots; main offense: finishing catches as a roll man, oops and a few hooks & short Js w/ his left hand; needs to extend perimeter game/develop consistency from midrange; struggles staying out of foul trouble, PT has taken a hit as a result; signed w/ Knicks – Henson reps another shot-blocker in Coach Thibs’s rotation
