ESPN on Henry: June, 2009. Henry may have as much upside as any prospect in the west for his class. The left-handed willowy wing-type possesses an array of skills that are very impressive. He plays extremely hard at both ends and he can be very physical despite his slight frame. He projects to being an elite-level 3-man because of his improved handle and innate ability to locate the open man off the dribble. He is a relentless rebounder as well, although he has a tendency to try to dribble through traffic instead of out-letting the ball to his point guard. His jump shot needs polishing as his release is quite slow. However, he does do a nice job of facing up his opponent to take him off the bounce. Overall, Henry has all the tools to play at the highest level. If he can continue to hone his skills and temper his emotions, his ceiling is unlimited. .— Source

OUHoops.com on Henry: September 2009. Currently projects as a high D1 player. Henry is a long, slender left-hander that is very active on both ends of the floor. He has an average frame with the potential to fill out. Used his length to alter opponents shots and showed the ability to knock down the midrange jumper with some consistency. Showed a good motor on the court. He is an above-average passer with a great understanding of the game. His motor is always going 100% and he has the potential to be an elite-level recruit as he develops over the next year.

Notes: He is the son of former Sooner great, Skeeter Henry.
