Henderson racked up 25 points (8-15 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 6-8 FT), seven rebounds, eight assists and two steals over 38 minutes during Sunday's 113-102 victory over the Bulls.
EDGE Analysis
Henderson moved to the starting lineup for this contest due to the absence of Anfernee Simons (elbow), and the second-year guard extended his impressive stretch of play. Since going scoreless in a loss to the Pistons on Jan. 7, Henderson has scored at least 20 points in four of his last seven contests, averaging 19.6 points, 6.1 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.3 steals per contest.

Henderson is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Bulls, Danny Marang of 1080 The Fan Portland reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Blazers won't have Anfernee Simons (elbow) available Sunday, so Henderson will return to the starting lineup as his replacement at point guard. Henderson has made five starts this season, averaging 16.2 points, 7.0 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 1.2 steals per game in those contests.

Henderson registered 21 points (6-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, 11 assists, three blocks and one steal in 31 minutes during Saturday's 125-103 loss to Houston.
EDGE Analysis
During a rare night of tepid totals from Portland's starting backcourt, Henderson stepped in and provided a much-needed spark to the offense. The 2023 first-round pick logged his second double-double of the season in the loss, as the youngster continues to excel in a sixth-man role. It's only a matter of time before Henderson becomes a full-time starter, but barring a trade deadline move or a significant injury, he's unlikely to assume the role this season.

Henderson is not in the starting lineup Saturday against the Rockets.
EDGE Analysis
After starting the last two games for the Trail Blazers, the second-year guard will come off the bench against Houston. The 20-year-old guard has started five games for Portland this season, averaging 16.2 points, 2.8 rebounds and 7.0 assists per game in that role. He had been starting in place of Deni Avdija (ankle), who is still on the mend, but the team is going with Jerami Grant as a starter in his return Saturday.

Henderson has been playing well in recent weeks and has surpassed the 15-point mark in three of his last four appearances. He's averaging 14.0 points, 4.8 assists and 3.3 rebounds per game in January.

Henderson supplied 39 points (13-18 FG, 8-10 3Pt, 5-8 FT), six assists, four rebounds and two steals across 39 minutes in Tuesday's 132-114 loss to the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Henderson was on fire the entire game, posting a career-high 39 points, albeit in a losing effort. The 20-year-old received the starting nod for the first time since Nov. 20 with Deni Avdija (ankle) sidelined. Henderson made the most of his opportunity and buried eight triples -- his previous high this season had been only three. The second-year pro has faced his fair share of struggles this year, though his production Tuesday is a step in the right direction for the No. 3 pick of the 2023 Draft.

EDGE Analysis
With Deni Avdija (ankle) sidelined Tuesday, Henderson will draw his first start for the Blazers since Nov. 20. The former lottery pick is averaging 8.7 points, 7.7 assists, 2.7 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 27.9 minutes over three games with Portland's first unit this year.

Henderson ended Thursday's 117-111 loss to the Mavericks with 20 points (3-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 12-12 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one steal in 26 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Henderson has bounced back effectively after going scoreless against the Pistons earlier in the week. Henderson is a key piece of Portland's future plans, but his fantasy outlook is capped due to excellent results from Anfernee Simons and Shaedon Sharpe. Although he's excelled with some encouraging numbers as a backup, Henderson lacks the consistency needed for consideration in most fantasy formats.

Henderson ended with zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound and three assists over 19 minutes during Monday's 118-115 loss to the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
Henderson was held without a point for the first time this season in what was arguably his worst performance of the campaign. He had a strong end to December, but his performance in January has left a lot to be desired so far with averages of 7.0 points, 4.7 assists, 4.3 rebounds and 0.7 triples in his last three outings.
