Blazers' Rising Star Henderson Sidelined for Months with Hamstring Tear
The Portland Trail Blazers announced Friday that their guard, Scoot Henderson, sustained a left hamstring tear earlier this week during an offseason workout. This unfortunate injury is expected to sideline the promising young player for a period, with the team anticipating his return to basketball activities within one to two months.
Henderson, who was the No. 3 overall pick in the 2023 NBA draft, completed his rookie season with the Blazers. During his 66 games played last season, he demonstrated his potential by averaging 12.7 points, 5.1 assists, and 3.0 rebounds per contest. His absence during the offseason recovery period will be closely monitored as he aims to prepare for the upcoming NBA season.
