After an improved season a few years ago, Henderson tested the restricted free agency market to see what was out there. Unimpressed with the deals Henderson was offered, instead of signing an offer with another team, to see if Charlotte would match, Henderson chose to sign a new deal with the team that drafted him, but gave himself an out with a player option if he manged to improve to the point where a big pay day would be on the way.
