John Salmons is a terrible comparison

I like this one a lot. Young Anthony Parker with more upside type thing (he was a good player a couple years ago).

All I can say is that to put himself in top 8, maybe even top 5, in a loaded draft like this one is shaping up to be you have to be a hell of a lot better than John Salmons or even James Harden. I haven't paid too much attention to Henry yet because I thought he was more of a late-lottery to mid-20s guy than a bona fide top 10 pick, but I've started to watch him more the last two weeks and I love what I see. I think he has a chance to be a Ray Allen type if he maintains his shooting prowess while working on his athleticism and handles. He has a chance to be special, imo. His J can put him on another level.
