Henson on receiving end of key block

Posted Dec 4, 2011
Turnabout is fair in love, war and college basketball. North Carolina's John Henson learned that the hard way Saturday. The 6-foot-11 Tar Heel forward with a wingspan of 7-4 is used to blocking and altering shots every time he steps onto the court. Henson's lesson came courtesy of Kentucky freshman Anthony Davis, and it may have preserved a 73-72 victory for the Wildcats. (Fox Sports South)
