Michigan State Basketball: Aaron Henry’s rapid progression has him in rare air

There’s a reason Gary Harris vouched for Aaron Henry out of high school even though he wasn’t the typical four or five-star recruit that Tom Izzo usually targeted.

Listed as a three-star prospect by a number of recruiting services, Henry wasn’t a McDonald’s All-American, nor did he receive a ton of accolades out of high school but one coach treated him like a priority above the rest which is why Izzo won him over.

Henry possessed elite athleticism for a wing and his body was already college-ready, as seen before the season began at the Michigan State Madness event.
