I'm really looking forward to seeing him play next season . NU really needs a good point guard to help create some easy baskets . As a team NU doesn't have many assists , hopefully that'll change with Henderson .

Niagara is going to need a lot next year with Thomasson, Iorio,Mitchell and Kasperzyk ending their NU careers. This will continue the new era of college basketball with major turnover every year.
Colleges will rely more on the transfer portal to fill needs rather freshmen. I expect NU will sign at least 3 transfers.
