Trail Blazers' Scoot Henderson: Strong showing off bench Friday
Scoot Henderson finished Friday's 127-102 loss to the Timberwolves with 16 points (6-14 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal in 32 minutes.Henderson has been relatively inconsistent as a scoring weapon coming off the bench for the Blazers, failing to reach the 10-point mark in four of his 10 appearances. The nature of that role, especially for a rebuilding team, limits his upside considerably. During those 10 appearances, Henderson is averaging 12.5 points and 4.5 assists per game, although he's shooting only 40.9 percent from the field and 26.7 percent from deep.

Trail Blazers' Scoot Henderson: Scores 18 in defeat
Scoot Henderson ended with 18 points (5-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five assists and four rebounds across 28 minutes during Monday's 111-98 loss to the Kings.The second-year point guard finished as the club's second-leading scorer behind Deandre Ayton (20) in the low-scoring defeat. Henderson has produced a decent start to the year, and through four regular-season outings, he has averaged 16.0 points, 5.5 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 0.8 steals across 28.8 minutes per game. The 20-year-old has come off the bench in four straight contests behind Anfernee Simons.

Trail Blazers' Scoot Henderson: Leads team from bench
Scoot Henderson registered 22 points (7-18 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 8-9 FT), four rebounds and four assists in 28 minutes during Wednesday's 139-104 loss to the Warriors.It was surprising to see Henderson on the bench to begin the game, but the team elected to start Anfernee Simons and Toumani Camara in the backcourt. The Portland Trail Blazers made a huge investment with Henderson, and it seems unlikely that he'll be on the bench for long. Coming out of the G League, Henderson is still developing, but Portland has a better chance at notching some wins with Henderson as a starter.

Trail Blazers' Scoot Henderson: Not starting opener
Scoot Henderson isn't part of the Portland Trail Blazers' starting lineup for Wednesday's regular-season opener against Golden State, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.Henderson's absence from the starting lineup comes as a little bit of a surprise, as the second-year guard was speculated to start alongside Anfernee Simons in the Portland backcourt. However, the Trail Blazers are opting to slide Simons to the point guard spot while Toumani Camara fills the two-spot. Despite his reserve status, Henderson should see 20-plus minutes against the Warriors. It's unclear if Henderson will come off the bench regularly or if his omission from the first unit was due to the matchup against Golden State.

Trail Blazers' Scoot Henderson: Leads Portland to victory
Scoot Henderson scored 23 points (10-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT) while adding five rebounds, six assists and two steals across 32 minutes in Wednesday's 111-100 preseason win over Ratiopharm Ulm.Henderson is locked in at the starting point guard role for the start of the 2024-25 season, though injuries to Anfernee Simons (ankle) and Shaedon Sharpe (shoulder) have played a role in that. Regardless, Henderson has looked sharp in preseason and could be poised to have a breakout season or at least improve upon the numbers he delivered as a rookie in 2023-24, when he averaged 14.0 points, 5.4 assists and 3.1 rebounds per game while shooting a meager 38.5 percent from the field across 62 regular-season contests.
