Pepperdine’s rim protector: Jarrad Henry brings shot-blocking pedigree and steady interior size
Jarrad Henry is a classic paint anchor for Pepperdine: a 6-11 center who finished his college career with 120 blocks, ranking among the program’s all-time shot-blocking leaders, and posted career averages of 2.8 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 49.1% shooting in 90 games. He’s the kind of player who changes angles at the rim and gives a team defensive backbone more than box-score flash. If you need size, toughness, and a low-drama interior presence, he fits; if you want a high-usage scorer, he’s not your guy.
