Blazers’ Scoot Henderson Has ‘Limitless Potential’

The Portland Trail Blazers aren’t in a great spot with franchise point guard Damian Lillard requesting a trade, but they would be in a far worse position if they didn’t draft Scoot Henderson with the No. 3 pick in last month’s draft.

It’s very possible that Lillard has played his last game with the Blazers, and if that’s the case, Henderson can jump right in and take over.

“Whenever the Damian Lillard saga comes to an end, Henderson will slide into the vacated spot as the face of this franchise,” Bleacher Report’s Zach Buckley writes.
