Skilled, versatile Duke big with real toughness and a long injury story
Amber Henson brought Duke a rare blend of size, shooting touch, and versatility at forward/center, with Duke listing her as a 6-4 big who could play multiple frontcourt spots and attack the offensive glass. In her Duke career, she was repeatedly described as a versatile, athletic scorer with excellent range and rebounding instincts, but also as a player whose impact was shaped by major knee issues and six surgeries. That injury history matters: her upside was obvious, but her availability and rhythm were the real swing factors. If you need a multi-tool frontcourt player with grit, she fit the bill.
