Bulk. As a freshman he showed good skills and awareness, but to be an impact player in the post in the Big East, Henry will need to put on a little muscle. He’s at the age where his body will bulk up a little anyway – the right time in the weight room will help. |

Ball handling – teams applied extra high pressure when he was filling in at the point. Hopefully next year teams won’t be able to get away with that gimmick defense. |

Strength on the ball – He gets fouled a lot, by bigs and by guards, but if he can fight players off just a little more, and hold the ball just a little longer he will earn a lot more free throws next year. |

- After injuring his knee in Game 2 of the opening round of the NBA Playoffs, Dikembe Mutombo has announced that he was retiring from basketball.
- Even if Allen Iverson were to get healthy in the next month, it wouldn’t make any difference, as the Cleveland Cavaliers kicked his Detroit Pistons out of the NBA Playoffs last night. With that, no Hoyas are left in the postseason. If Houston were to win, however, Dikembe would still earn his first NBA Championship ring.
- Coach John Thompson III was seen at the Verizon Center on Friday watching the Capitals in the NHL Playoffs. With the Caps winning both games this weekend, we might catch JTIII at the Phone Booth again tomorrow.

Defensive rebounding. If he continues to be used as Monroe’s backup, he’s not going to be expected to fill the void on offense. Defensively he can make a huge impact if he pulls down 4 or 5 defensive boards per game. |

Decision making. For being a point guard, Wright hasn’t been too good at running the break. If he could slightly improve his knowing when to create for himself or for his teammates, it will make the team a lot better. |
