In front of the home crowd, and in a head-to-head duel against the Portland Trail Blazers’ former face of the franchise, Scoot Henderson only had his mind on one thing: getting to the rim. Swift both mentally and physically in his reaction to the Milwaukee Bucks’ pick-and-roll communication error, the No. 3 pick charges the right-side corner with moxie, speeding down the baseline unimpeded and on his way to a one-handed reverse flush. Continuing his steady month-to-month progression, the athletically-gifted floor general energized the second unit with 15 points, four assists, and two 3-pointers in just 22 minutes of play, bolstering his team to a primetime, signature win on January 31, 2024. · Feb 1, 2024
