John Henson On What The NBA Draft Process Is Really Like

Posted Jun 27, 2012
John Henson describes an average day during pre-draft training: "Wake up at 7 a.m. and get to the gym at about 8, and had a shooting workout from 8 ’till 9. Then on Monday and Wednesday we would have Yoga at 9 and the rest of the days we did skill work from around 9 ’till 11:30. Then we had a break for lunch and to rest, then we would lift and get back on the court at 2:30 or 3:30, and after that we were done." (Dime Magazine)
