The 21-year-old spent three seasons with the Spartans, making steady progression with each year on the team. By the 2020-21 season, he was named to the Big Ten's All-Defensive team and selected as a third-team all-conference player.
The 6'6" wing averaged 15.4 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.3 steals last season. He also shot 44.9 percent from the field and 29.6 percent from beyond the arc. His three-point percentage may be a bit of an outlier considering he knocked down 35.6 percent of his long-range jumpers across his freshman and sophomore years.
Henry's combination of scoring and defense could make him a solid three-and-D option at the next level, and that skill set has never been more valuable than it is now.
