John Henson, MIL

Resume

  • 5 Seasons – All with MIL
  • 7.8 PPG – Career
  • 5.2 RPG – Career
  • 1.5 BPG – Career

This is another very appealing idea for the Mavericks. Henson’s numbers are due to a very limited role on his current team, along with the fact that the 6-11 forward has been playing center for the Bucks the past 3 seasons.

The last time Henson was in his natural position of power forward, he averaged 11.1 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 1.7 blocks per game. Henson would be able to come in and take some pressure off of Dirk, HB, and Salah as they have been scrambling to guard teams that oversize the Mavericks.

Muck like Faried, Henson plays very hard and has a motor that will go all 48 minutes if you need it to. With the recent injury to Jabari Parker, the Bucks could be very open to any trade possibilities the Mavericks sent their way.
