NBA Draft 2012: Comparing Lottery Players to NBA Players
Posted Jun 7, 2012
While he was at UNC, I thought John Henson was basically Ed Davis. Could his ceiling be an Alonzo Mourning-type player defensively (Henson supposedly has a similar 7-foot-6 wingspan) and lead the league in blocks? Small chance of that happening. I can see Henson having an Otis Thorpe-type career offensively – next to the right center – while swatting shots like Elden Campbell.
