Scoot Henderson says Blazers are ‘best situation’ for him, but will that change?
New York TimesNEW YORK — Scoot Henderson sauntered around the Barclays Center on Thursday night after he went No. Portland was seen as one of the big question marks heading into the night, with speculation that the Trail Blazers might trade the pick to add veteran help for Damian Lillard, and Henderson didn’t know where he would go. “I’m feeling like all my butterflies going away,” Henderson told The Athletic. It’s just another intersection of another beginning.” From his iced out grill down to his blinged out jacket, Scoot Henderson's family ties are engrained into his entire #NBADraft outfit! It all came full circle.” While the league waits to see how the Blazers’ situation with Lillard shakes out — whether he will potentially request a trade or buy into this rebuild, now centered around Henderson and Shaedon Sharpe — Henderson made it clear he wants to play with Lillard.
