. John Henson. 7. team. 89. In another week playing second fiddle at the center position, even as the starter, Henson struggled. He shot just 38.5 percent from the field and was more than doubled in rebounds by his counterpart off the bench, Greg Monroe (Monroe did play 26 more minutes).
<p>As I have mentioned in the past, Henson’s numbers are fine for a bench player, but are nowhere near they need to be for the starting position. And with his relatively weak offense, his defense needs to make up for it. This usually would not be a problem, but during this last stretch, he has really struggled against other bigs down low.</p>
<p>Henson is a shot-blocking, rim-protecting center, who recorded just two blocks in 52 total minutes.</p>. C
