Scoot Henderson's Hamstring Tear Will Keep him Out for Up to Two Months
Portland Trail Blazers point guard Scoot Henderson (hamstring) is set to miss four to eight weeks after suffering a left-hamstring tear earlier this week. The third-year guard, who averaged 12.7 points and 5.1 assists per game last season over 66 appearances, will begin rehab immediately, with a return expected in late October or November. Henderson's absence shifts point guard duties to veteran Jrue Holiday, giving him a larger role in the backcourt. For fantasy managers, Henderson remains a strong late-round stash due to his ability to provide consistent points and assists once healthy. While he won't contribute in the short term, securing him now could pay dividends down the line, especially in deeper leagues where his return could immediately impact multiple categories. Monitoring his recovery timeline will be key to timing his activation and maximizing fantasy value.
