Played well in the second half. Only a 3 point game until it became time to foul

that excites me. if we can get solid production from him off the bench this year, that's going to be ballin.

I really like Henry. If he stays healthy, he can be a contributor off the bench.

I am a fan, if he can start playing consistently he could be really good.

The fact that he was a 1st rounder. That's it. He's terrible

I can't speak for everyone else, but what i like about him are as follows: he beats his man and draws fouls at a higher than normal rate, has good size and strength, and matches up well defensively against the majority of other wings. The real question is what does he do when he gets by his man into the lane? Earlier in the week, the result was him putting his head down and just barreling in, but later in the week he actually kept his head up and passed out when necessary. Also, it seems that he's taken some time to work on his free throw shooting.

Honestly, we all know he's a backup on this team and if our back up can: draw fouls, shoot a decent % on those foul shots, make good decisions, and play good D, then I'd say thats something to be happy with.

agree. He is a good role player off the bench who is very versatle to backup the 2 and 3. Dude can ball with a nice stroke.

Looking at the stats I don't think he's improved his shot which is disappointing, but he is finally hitting FTs at a good rate. He and Rivers on the bench unit could push the other team into the penalty for when the starters return.

yep. the best thing he does is get to the foul line. Last season, he couldn't make them. If he keeps getting there this season and knocks them down, he can be a solid player
