Intro: Christian Henry (2021)
St. Rita 2021 point guard Christian Henry is a scoring point guard that brings a powerful punch to the table. Strong build and loves to attack downhill where he can score in the paint. Burst with the ball in his hands. Converts difficult up and unders. Streaky shooter that has a shot to become a more consistent one throughout his career as he shoots a good ball. Tough kid that rebounds well from the point.
He ran on the circuit with Chicago Hoops 15U last summer.
“It went good. We beat tough teams. We beat an EYBL team in Indiana, beat an Adidas team in Las Vegas, and when we played at the PrepHoops event we almost won but lost to Breakaway. It was a good summer.”
Henry spoke about the areas of his game he has grown the most.
“I have improved on my speed. I wasn’t the fast person on defense where I could keep up with the best guards in the state. I worked on that and improved my speed this summer.”
What are his go to moves?
“My hesitation with the right to drive and my left handed pull up jumpers. I believe nobody can guard that.”
The sophomore spoke about his team goals for this season at St. Rita.
“I am looking forward to winning regionals, sectionals, and maybe stage.”
