PEORIA — The basketball evolution of Bradley junior Ja’Shon Henry is primed for another big step this season.
The 6-foot-6, 230-pound Canadian established himself in his first two seasons as a rugged power forward who could bang with bigger guys on both ends and produce positive results.
Henry doubled his scoring and rebounding averages from his freshman to sophomore years — from 4.2 and 2.4 to 9.5 and 6.0, respectively. Most of that scoring was done in the paint or at the free-throw line after his forays to the basket elicited contact.
