Terry Henderson Jr. (born March 21, 1994) is an American professional basketball player for Scagliera Verona of the Serie A2 Basket in Italy. 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]
