Scoot Henderson believes he should have been the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft. He’ll have to settle for being No. 3.
He was picked by the Portland Trail Blazers on Thursday night, behind Victor Wembanyama by San Antonio and Brandon Miller by Alabama.
And now it’s time to watch what longtime Portland star Damian Lillard does – and if the pick of another point guard will make him think about requesting a change of scenery.
Henderson spent the last two seasons with the G League Ignite, preparing for life in the NBA that way instead of going the traditional college route.
Draft picks:
- Scoot Henderson No. 3 overall by Blazers
- Leonard Miller to TWolves at No. 33 via Spurs
- Sidy Cissoko at No. 44th overall by Spurs
- Mojave King at No. 47 by Pacers
