    i see some mocks have him in the late first round but other then that most mocks have him mid second i think he is a really good prospect he is 6’5 225 with a 6’11 wingspan very athletic has a good shot he overpowers smaller defenders and drives by bigger defenders is his only knock that he went to a smaller school who played less competition? does anyone else think high of him?

       @mosdef  like does anyone consider him maybe a sleeper in this draft a person who in the next few years could be starting for a team and contribute to that team cause i had noticed this sites mock doesnt even have him getting drafted and he does compare favoribly to bonzi in the way he plays to me which is not bad thing

    I have him 1st pick in 2nd round if i recall correctly. I too think he can be a starting SG cuz I knew about his wingspan from the start of the season. I didnt see him on TV so we all know its his ability to handle and shoot the 3 overall that will determine if he is a starting SG or just a good college SF who has NBA SG size

     

    I know you are new but you seem to know basketball from all your post. Let me ask you this, off topic, do you think Henson can play SF in the role of a Robert Horry and Tashawn Prince. He has decent handle and from his workout in SAC he has improved his range

    im a big unc fan so i actually followed henson in high school once he commited to us and in high school he ran the 3 which i know is no where near the same as playing it in the league but to me he has the skill to play the 3 not the whole game but defaintly give you some good minutes there his best postion is the 4 because he is a great weak side blocker and has great anticipation and is a solid rebounder but since coming to unc he has expanded his range from around 14 ft to consistently hitting out to 18ft and now i believe since the season ended he can hit out to 21-22 ft consistently he also would have the ability to defend most 3’s in the league due to his length and lateral quickness outside of lebron and durant but who can stop them? lol but he also would be a mismatch against 3s in the post he has a really nice left hook and a developing right hook.. sorry for the long explanation but i do personally believe he could play some 3 in the nba

     Big Orland Johnson fan, I hung out with him on his recruiting trip to Loyola Marymount before he eventually transfered to UCSB. He was the one bright spot on our team as a freshman and has great skill set, big stong body, and a good motor.  Early 2nd round.

    He looks like Sonny Weems to me.

    The talent is certainly here, but he needs to improve his shots.  Under 70% FT is unacceptable for a SG.
