WATCH: Steph Curry Trains With Scoot Henderson

In this story:
Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry re-shared an Instagram post from NBA Draft prospect Scoot Henderson that showed the two players working out together. Curry and Henderson recently announced a mentorship and strategic alliance, which is more focused on the business side of basketball; however, the two have clearly formed a connection on the court as well.
Henderson is widely projected to go second or third overall in this upcoming NBA Draft, but there could certainly be some movement on those two picks before they're made. With the Charlotte Hornets having the second pick, and the Portland Trail Blazers having the third pick, there seems to be a real chance that one or both of those teams could be interested in some of the strong trade offers that are likely to present themselves for those picks.
The upside of Henderson, along with Brandon Miller, is what makes those two picks so valuable. There are several teams who would love an opportunity to draft Henderson, even if it was in exchange for an already proven NBA star. Already working out with Steph Curry, Henderson has one of the best mentors possible as he begins his NBA journey.
While it's unclear where exactly he will land, Henderson projects to be a franchise changer.
