How does that work? Is every US citizen able to claim Puerto Rican athletic citizenship? Do you need some sort of connection to the island?

Henry Ellenson now in Japanese League . Unfortunately , Henry was not an outstanding performer in The Spanish League and is now going down a level. Should be able to do well in Japan, as Davante has done over many years.

Henry cut from Japanese team. Did not appear in any games. Must have been injured. Hopefully he finds a new home.

Ha...Henry was cut from the "Robots".  Seemingly a perfect fit.
The shaka sign, sometimes known as "hang loose", is a gesture of friendly intent often associated with Hawaii and surf culture.

Why do I have this negative vibe whenever I think of Ellenson. Felt like he used us. Felt like he and his family pushed Wojo around. Overrated.   The next thought is I'm too hard on the guy. At least he's seen the world. So I hope he finds success in life.

Meh.  He made $6MM before turning 25 years old, all playing a sport.  He did just fine, and sticking around in college wasn't going to change his career trajectory.

We would've been brutally awful without him.  Luke Fischer and Haanif Cheatham were our 2nd and 3rd leading scorers that year.

You're too hard on him.

I think part of it is part the idea that he set us back on team/coach development and part that he got us to a 20 win season with some great wins and yet zero postseason to show for it.

It also ended really poorly when Wojo cut Wally after Henry left. Would have been cool if Henry stuck around one more year as that team would have been really fun. Can't pass up being a first rounder though.

Well Woj told Wally either full commit to basketball or high jump, but in a way yes he cut him. Smoke & mirrors

Yes, you're being way too hard on Henry. Averaged 17 and just under 10, first team all conference & freshman of the year.  We won 20 games with him, including a great win in Madison and knocking off top 10 Providence on the road.  Pretty amazing considering how bad a coach Wojo was and how young they were.

Wojo was responsible for team/ coach development.  He was paid very well to do so and failed miserably at it.  I don't how that would possibly be on Henry.  What, he owed the program and fans something to stay at least another year?  It was well understood when he joined MU he may be a one and done.  He was top 10 nationally in his class and a McDonald's AA.  Many of those guys aren't in college long.  He bet in himself to be a first round pick and was right.

Any failure after that is on Wojo, his staff, and players, not Henry having the audacity to take his NBA shot. It's ludicrous to say otherwise. And any argument we should have never taken him knowing he would probably leave after 1 year is just as ludicrous.  You don't say no, not interested to consensus top 10 national players.

Imagine that ... a top-tier college athlete "using" his chosen program to succeed personally. Because college programs don't "use" athletes at all.

While I agree with what you said, he did not develop any further after Wojo either.
