Aaron Henry is getting his first taste of NBA action in the Summer League, and he scored with one impressive move during Thursday’s action.
After going undrafted, Henry signed a two-way contract with the Philadelphia 76ers. Now, Henry is trying to do enough in the Summer League to get a chance to make the roster.
His best play against Atlanta came on a contested shot that turned into a fastbreak. Henry recovered after his man beat him on a backdoor cut with Henry blocking the shot at the rim.
Once he recovered the rebound, Henry was off to the races, cutting through traffic. He finished the break by putting a beautiful Euro step on Sharife Cooper that turned the defender around.
