Forward Aaron Henry considered leaving MSU after his sophomore season, but ultimately elected to come back for his junior year. So far that has turned out to be a great decision for him, and one mock draft has already taken notice of his improved game.
Bryan Kalbrosky of For The Win has Henry going No. 22 overall to the Philadelphia 76ers in his latest 2021 NBA Mock Draft that was published on Wednesday.
Here’s a portion of what Kalbrosky had to say about Henry:
“He looks to have gained significant size and confidence, clearly emerging as a team leader under coach Tom Izzo. Thus far, he has stepped it up as a defender, recording 4 blocks during a victory over Notre Dame.”

Henry is doing it all for the Spartans through the first five games this season. He’s averaging 11.6 points, 6.2 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 1.8 steals and 2 blocks per game.
Henry was the only Spartan listed in this mock draft, but don’t be surprised if we see some other guys get some NBA love should MSU continue to play well this year.
