Gerald Henderson gets grief, praise from UNC-led Bobcats

Posted Sep 30, 2009
Gerald Henderson was about to attempt a 3-pointer near the end of his first NBA practice Tuesday when Michael Jordan pounced. It was difficult to make out exactly what the Charlotte Bobcats managing partner said, but it had something to do with Henderson being too far from the basket. "He was joking with me about my 3-pointer," Henderson said. "But I can expect that from him." Welcome to Tar Heel-land, Duke rookie. (WRAL Sports Fan)
