John Henson ranked among top second-year NBA players

Posted Nov 27, 2013
David Thorpe of Scouts Inc. ranked the top second-year players in the NBA and put forward John Henson of the Bucks number six on his list. "Henson is probably the least-appreciated player in this class, perhaps even by his own team,” Thorpe said. “He is a top-five shot-blocker in the league (per 48 minutes). Plus, he finishes shots in the paint at a high rate and makes easy plays as a passer." (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel)
