It did not matter what was asked of him, Finn Henderson was going to do it for the Reeltown basketball team. However, more than likely, he was asked to get a bucket for his squad and in his senior year he got plenty.
Henderson ended as the team leader with 17.1 points per game and just capped off his senior season with an Alabama Sports Writers Association All-State honorable mention distinction.
He was a threat for the Rebels all over the court. After being a crucial piece in Reeltown’s state championship in football he wasted no time showing his ability on the court. In the season opener against Central Coosa he led the team with 25 points, showing his ability from deep as well as in the point.
Henderson continued at that pace being the spark of life in Reeltown offensive capabilities, but was just as much of a threat on the defensive side. He was second on the team with 5.4 rebounds, second in steals with 1.7 and first in blocks with 0.7 per game.
Although the season did not go according to plan, falling in the first round of the area tournament, Henderson still shined bright for the Rebels. His contribution on the offensive end will surely be missed as the Rebels look for a new player to fill the hole Henderson will leave.
