UNC's John Henson making strides, learning to be a 3

Posted Dec 1, 2009
Entering tonight's game against Michigan State, John Henson, the fourth-ranked incoming recruit in the country is averaging 3.6 points and 2.6 rebounds. A small forward dubbed runner-up in the ACC Rookie of the Year balloting, he is playing 10.1 minutes per game. No doubt, it's frustrating, especially for a 10th-ranked Tar Heels team that could use more production at small forward - particularly against a veteran Spartans squad. (Charlotte Observer)
