#39: John Henson, Milwaukee Bucks

Height: 6’11”
Position: Center/power forward
Bottom line: As the NBA has moved into a 3-point scoring league, John Henson has been forced to evolve his skillset. Many more old-school ballers have needed to adapt to the changing times, Henson being no exception. But how has the baller managed to change according to the new rules? He manages to score 2.2 treys with each game, with a success rate of 35.5%, the player’s career peak percentage from beyond the arc.

#40: Jarrett Allen, Brooklyn Nets

Height: 6’11”
Position: Center
Bottom line: Allen made his NBA debut in 2017 following a great freshman period within Texas. His initial two seasons within the NBA were a good showcase of his skill, within both court sides.
Allen is a scoring machine, hitting the high double-digits, as well as a competent rim-protector. The defense he provides is what defines him as such an indispensable addition to any team. The control and distance he maintains to deflect shots require better recognition.
The spring chicken deserves acknowledgment for his high upside.
