Henderson’s height immediately pops – even in a room with top talent, he’s a head taller than anyone else on the floor. But what impressed me most about him was his vocal communication and leadership for a player his age. The game slowed down enough for him to be aware not just of where he should be on the court, but where his teammates should position themselves, too. He handles the ball extremely well for a player of his size. One area of improvement is finishing around the rim. Because of his size, the opportunities will be there, it’s just a matter of capitalizing on them at a more consistent clip.

We saw Henderson quite a bit over the last six months.  He showed promise at the state finals then had a solid summer with BBE and Leo.  When he is assertive round the hoop using his athleticism getting on the offensive glass, finishing out of the dunker spot, and showing touch on his hook shot he is a super tough cover as he can also stretch to three.  Defensively is a switchable defender with rim protection upside.

Henderson continues to be among the most intriguing 2029 posts in the state.  The four man is being more assertive in the paint backing in for a hook shot, getting on the offensive glass for impactful plays, caught the ball on the move for a finish through contact.  Jab step for a three and blocked a shot.
