Terry Henderson Jr. (born March 21, 1994) is an American professional basketball player for Greensboro Swarm of the NBA G League. He played college basketball for West Virginia and NC State.

College career

He played two seasons for the West Virginia Mountaineers and averaged 8.0 points per game as a freshman. Henderson increased those numbers to 11.7 points and 2.9 rebounds per game as a sophomore while making 17 starts. In 2014 he transferred to NC State, choosing the Wolfpack over Maryland and Richmond.[1] After sitting out a redshirt year per NCAA regulations, he played seven minutes of their first match against William & Mary and broke the ligament of his right knee, which left him out of competition for the rest of the season.[2] Once recovered, in his only full season with the team he averaged 13.8 points and 3.1 rebounds per game and led N.C. State in 3-pointers (78). Henderson applied for a sixth year of eligibility but was denied by the NCAA in May 2017.[3]

Professional career

After not being selected in the 2017 NBA Draft, in September he signed with the Charlotte Hornets to play in the preseason.[3] On October 13, he was cut by the Hornets before the season began, shortly afterwards joining the Greensboro Swarm of the NBA G League.[4] Henderson was invited to play for the Hornets in the 2018 Summer League.[5] He played for Scagliera Verona in Italy during the 2018-19 season and started 19 games with averages of 12.4 points, 2.9 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game. Henderson was acquired by the Greensboro Swarm on February 6, 2020.[6] On February 16, Henderson totaled 13 points, six rebounds, two assists and a block in a loss to the Wisconsin Herd.[7]
