UNC recruit John Henson shines on circuit
Posted Jul 12, 2008
UNC basketball commitment John Henson, a 6-foot-10 rising senior from Round Rock, Texas, continues to draw rave reviews on the summer circuit. All-Star Sports recruiting analyst Bob Gibbons said Henson was the consensus No. 1 player at Nike’s LeBron James Skills Academy earlier this month in Akron. Henson compares to Brandan Wright, who spent the 2006-07 season at North Carolina before entering the NBA draft.
