Henry is a Charlotte native before moving to Arizona and playing at Compas Prep. He also considered BYU, Kansas, UConn, Duke, and Ohio State.
The 6-foot-7, 190-pound Henry is ranked No. 4 nationally, the No. 1 small forward, and No. 1 player in the state of Arizona per the 247Sports recruiting rankings. As of now, there's really no favorite for the talented recruit but some believe it could be UNC or Kentucky as the favorite.
