Per the same report, the Hornets have been deliberating between Henderson and Brandon Miller over the past week. However, final meetings are scheduled for today to make a definitive decision.

The Hornets currently hold the second overall pick in the draft, while the Portland Trail Blazers hold the third spot. Both teams find themselves trailing the San Antonio Spurs, who are widely expected to select Victor Wembanyama as the top pick.

Standing at 6-foot-2, Henderson played for the NBA G League Ignite last season, showcasing his skills and versatility by averaging 17.6 points, 6.6 assists, and 5.1 rebounds per game.
