ACC NBA Draft Watch, June 14

Posted Jun 14, 2012
John Henson wowed NBA personnel with a freakishly long 9-foot-4 standing reach — which tied with Norfolk State’s Kyle O’Quinn for the top mark at the Combine. Scouts still have reservations about Henson’s thin frame, though. He tipped the scales at 216 lbs. - definitely on the skinny side for an NBA power forward. Despite resembling a bean-pole, Henson is on the Pistons’ shortlist for No. 9 overall. (ACC Sports Journal)
