Portland Trail Blazers guard Scoot Henderson didn’t have the best rookie year, but he showed a lot of potential that could turn into a great player with a little more development.
That’s why Henderson was one of 10 players chosen for Brad Botkin’s list of players “poised to level up” on CBS Sports.
Henderson is a good bet to take more than a few steps. First, he shot 82% from the free-throw line, which suggests his shooting in general should be able to at least sustain, if not improve upon, the 35% clip that he registered from 3-point land after the All-Star break last season.
