Gerald Henderson is a good scorer. What remains to be seen, however, is if he can contribute to a winning team. The last (and only) time the Bobcats were good was the 09-10 season, when Hendo was a rookie getting 8 MPG. Now that he is seemingly one of the building blocks for the Bobcats-soon-to-be-Hornets franchise, it is important to know whether his contested-jumper-based game can be a recipe for team success.
Is he Kobe-lite or is he just Ben Gordon minus the reliable three point shot? We won’t get a good idea until the Bobcats manage to start winning again, which, given their embarrassing history of drafting absolute busts, will probably occur around the time Gerald Henderson III is entering the league.
