The second-year guard established career-highs in points (39), field goals (13), and 3-pointers (eight), shooting 13-of-18 from the field and 5-of-8 from the foul line. Henderson was also responsible for four rebounds, six assists, and two steals in what qualifies as the best performance of his young NBA career.

Despite losing by an 18-point deficit, Portland's 20-year-old Scoot Henderson dropped in a career-high 39 points against the Nets last night.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Scoot Henderson’s shot was on point Tuesday night against the Brooklyn Nets. He drove for a dunk, had a put-back dunk, hit a floater and a short jumper, and nailed many three-pointers. Wide-open threes, contested threes, step-back threes, ill-advised threes. It didn’t matter the variety. Almost all of them went in.
