Henson finished with eight points (3-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, two steals and two blocks across 23 minutes Sunday in the Pistons' 107-104 loss to the Trail Blazers.

EDGE Analysis

Henson saw his most extensive playing time to date since being acquired by the Pistons earlier this month, but this quality showing off the bench won't necessarily earn him consistent run moving forward. As a 29-year-old whose contract is set to expire this summer, Henson may not be prioritized over Thon Maker. Though Maker -- an impending restricted free agent -- isn't necessarily part of the Pistons' long-term plans, he's at least six years younger and offers more theoretical upside at this stage of his career than Henson does.

Henson finished with seven points (3-4 FG, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds and three blocks across 17 minutes off the bench Monday in the Pistons' 87-76 loss to the Hornets.

EDGE Analysis

There were few quality statistical lines on a night in which both teams shot worse than 40 percent from the field, but Henson's efficiency, rebounding and shot blocking were enough for him to pay off for those that streamed him. Henson could gradually eat into starting center Thon Maker's playing time, but until then, he'll remain more of an option in 14-team leagues or deeper while he's seeing under 20 minutes.

Henson played 18 minutes off the bench and contributed 12 points (6-6 FG), four rebounds, one assist and one steal Saturday in the Pistons' 95-92 loss to the Knicks.

EDGE Analysis

Making his team debut after coming over from the Cavaliers in Thursday's trade that sent Andre Drummond to Cleveland, Henson immediately seized a spot in Detroit's frontcourt rotation. Coach Dwane Casey rolled with Thon Maker as the starting center Saturday, but once he has a chance to settle into his new locale, Henson could unseat Maker for the top job or at least handle a larger share of minutes. For now, Henson's fantasy utility is probably best suited for deeper formats rather than 12-team leagues or shallower.

Henson (not injury related) is available to make his Pistons debut Saturday against the Knicks, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Henson was in the deal that sent Andre Drummond to Cleveland. It's unclear what sort of role Henson will have. He'll be fighting for minutes with Christian Wood and Thon Maker.

Henson (not injury related) will not make his Pistons debut Friday against the Thunder, Rod Beard of The Detroit News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Henson isn't yet with the team. It's unclear if he'll be available Saturday against the Knicks.

Henson -- along with Brandon Knight and a 2023 second-round pick -- was traded Thursday to the Pistons in exchange for Andre Drummond, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Henson carved out a backup role for the Cavaliers this season, averaging 5.0 points, 3.9 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.1 blocks in 14.2 minutes. He'll now join a Pistons squad devoid of true starting talent, and it's possible he'll have the opportunity to grab the starting job. Henson will be competing with the likes of Christian Wood -- possibly the frontrunner -- and Thon Maker. Either way, it seems unlikely Henson is destined for a role of more than 25 minutes on a consistent basis.

Henson accumulated 10 points (4-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 109-103 loss to the Thunder.

EDGE Analysis

Henson earned a season high minute total and matched season highs in scoring and boards. He filled in well as the starting center in place of Tristan Thompson (quadriceps). However, unless Cleveland moves Thompson at the deadline (and doesn't acquire a more appealing big man than Henson), there's a decent chance Henson returns to his usual reserve role for Sunday's matchup versus the Clippers.

Henson will start Wednesday against the Thunder, Kelsey Russo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Henson will pick up his second start of the season Wednesday with Tristan Thompson (quad) unavailable. In his only other start this season, Henson tallied seven points, 11 rebounds, three assists and one block in 23 minutes. Larry Nance will come off the bench behind Henson.

Henson had three points (1-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 0-2 FT), three assists and one rebound in 13 minutes during Thursday's 124-112 loss to the Wizards.

EDGE Analysis

Henson rejoined the rotation after sitting out the last two games with a back injury. However, he saw the ninth-most minutes for the Cavaliers and has earned at least 20 minutes just once through 22 appearances this season.

Henson (back) will play in Thursday's contest against Washington, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Henson has missed the last two matchups due to an ailing back injury, but nonetheless, the center will return to the floor in time for Thursday's game. Henson is currently averaging just 4.9 points and 3.8 rebounds in 21 outings with the Cavaliers this season.
