Xavier Henry
He is bullishly strong. Explosive and fast but not as much as he was before his [car] accident. 7-foot wingspan. More of a scorer than a shooter, but he takes a lot of threes. Ball-Handling and passing skills are average but need improvement. The jury is still out on his defense yet.
Already has an NBA body, 6'6'' 225 isn't an exaggeration. I bet his defense will improve as the season progresses, as of now, I'd rate his defense as average, gives people problems because of his size, and is decent getting in the pasing lanes.
I feel by season's end he will be a top 10 prospect
Now that he has the size with the jumper, I see him being a good player. Could be in the range for that top 5 range depending on the season.
Reminds me of Paul Pierce type player
hes had the size since his sr year in hs..its good for the bumping of the nba but it has slowed him down to the point he cant blow by anyone, but he doesn't have to yet since his jumper is nice.
lol..that because mot people on here couldn't even tell you what kind of accident he had they just need something to use as an excuse if a player they like doesn't do what they expect. happens alot on here, mostly with freshmen who they pumped up in hs who don't seem to do the same things in college
No. He was a better athlete before the accident, and then he appeared to lose some of his explosiveness following it. I don't love Xavier Henry and I could care less about "pumping him up". It clearly affected his game, directly or no.











Xavier Henry can you tell me about this dude, to me it's interesting and NBAdraft didn't post anything about him.
So i was wondering if you can tell me about him???
