Scoot Henderson Media Availability | February 21 | Portland Trail Blazers

How was your experience at allar it was good uh really cold though but you know we had the Puma activation with with puma and Cheetos that was fire man you know it’s always you know a blessing to see my own shoes somewhere that I would never imagine so I know you’ve done this

A few times before cuz when you were at the in the g- league you were doing the rising star stuff what’s the difference in the experience if there is one doing it as a g-league player versus doing it as an NBA player I feel like like I

Wanted to come in this year my third Rising Star you know with a different approach um different mindset you know it’s always to to go in there and have fun and you know that killer mindset but I think this year was just it just meant

A little more to to try to get at you know players in your class and stuff like that rather as in you know the G League it’s more like you trying to get a get a name you know what I mean you’re trying to boost your stock up as a

G-league player so um I feel like it’s the same mentality as in you know going out there and kill and you know kill the opponent but different as in players you going against and players throughout that you’re playing throughout the season and stuff like that but what are

Some guys you like from this rookie class that you maybe got to see on we uh man this class is really deep um you know I like I like all the I like all the talent that we have you know especially in this class with all the

Top picks and stuff like that we got wiy B Mill Keon George really really proven a lot um you know caseing on Thunder you know really really efficent and a really important play on their team part of their team but you know it’s really a

Lot of depth in this class how long did you st I tried to get out there as quick as I could so but but the latest flight was 6:30 and I’m like nah I can’t do that but uh I got left like Sunday Sunday morning

Got up out of there nah I try to get out of there I my family know you know it’s always good to be with your family on a weekend like that at least man it was it was really fun though is there anything else there you want to do someday

Contest skills yeah done contest maybe one day uh I was just talking but maybe maybe maybe don’t Happ it’s not often you get the opportunity to be around as many young guys being in that kind of locker room with those guys is there hell a week do you have any like shared

Experiences or things you kind of learn from each other for sure um I think everybody just got something in common you know everybody got something in Comon everybody has their first view of the NBA and you know you dream of it but everybody doesn’t go through the same

Thing at the same time and you know a lot of the players in the class are going through the same thing that you know maybe I’m i’ I’ve been going through or you know I’ve been seeing them go through certain things but I think it’s just we share a lot of things

And and especially just the view as a rookie as a point guard sometimes and and as just a young young person entering a a very grown up Life by yourself or with your family you know but it’s it’s still the same you’re in the NBA and you’re young so what do you

Hope to accomplish the last two months um just continue to get better continue to to fill out you know my role on the team continue to embrace my role on the team and and get better as a team and you know really just get our chemistry together your reaction to the

DW wreath news was fantastic why were you so excited that’s my dog man you know you see your friend or whatever your your buddy teammate you know accomplish something that that you know they could and and you know that they put the working for it um for me at

Least uh is one of my favorite things to to to see you know see one of my teammates or my friend you know uh accomplish that and and get a three-year contract so especially for a team that I’m on and we got do up man it’s it’s

  1. This youngster is going to be a savage. He has the physical tools. He,s strong,he's fast and he's a explosive.Continuity and connectivity with his unit is what will take him to the next level.

  2. "you guys have any shared experiences?" …bruh. For fuck sake these questions.
