Overview

  • Henderson sustained the injury during an offseason workout ahead of training camp, the team announced Friday.
  • Portland estimates a 4–8 week window for a return to basketball activities, which is not a guarantee of game readiness.
  • The team said Henderson has begun rehab and will have his status updated as appropriate during the recovery process.
  • He is entering his third NBA season after averaging 12.7 points and 5.1 assists on 41.9% shooting and 35.4% from three across 66 games in 2024–25.
  • Expectations for an expanded role followed Portland’s trade of Anfernee Simons and the addition of Jrue Holiday, making the setback significant for the backcourt rotation.
