The New York Knicks signed Center Norvel Pelle last week to a 10-day contract but dislocated his finger in his first appearance. Now, New York went out and found another veteran big man who can fill a depth role, and this time around, it’s John Henson, formally of the Detroit Pistons and Cleveland Cavaliers.
Having missed this season up to the present day, Henson brings 5.5 points per game from his 2019-20 season with 40 appearances and eight starts. He averaged just 5.5 points with Cleveland and Detroit, connecting on .556 percent of his shots from the field and sporadically even attempted a three-pointer.
