"Christian is a tough Chicago guard," said Heath. "He's a winner who led his team to the national tournament at junior college. He's a combo guard who can play with the ball in his hands, he can facilitate, and he can knock down shots. He's definitely one of those players who has proven himself in clutch moments. We're excited to have him and he'll help us with our guard play and he'll bring great leadership qualities to the team, as well."
Henry (Chicago, Ill./The Skill Factory (Atlanta, Ga.)/Panola College) averaged 13.8 points per game and 3.9 assists per game as a sophomore, which included a 20.0 ppg clip in the NJCAA Tournament.
