Excels with 15 points
Henderson closed Tuesday's 114-104 victory over the Clippers with 15 points (5-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and two assists in 29 minutes.
Analysis
The Trail Blazers employed a smaller lineup amid Jerami Grant's (calf) absence, running Henderson alongside Jrue Holiday in the backcourt for a second consecutive game. The move has reaped significant benefits with two convincing victories. Shaedon Sharpe's (calf) extended absence has opened a window for Henderson to show his potential after fading into the woodwork for most of the season behind Holiday. The team will likely ride with this successful scheme until Grant returns.
