Penn State basketball adds coveted transfer from Denver
Penn State men’s basketball head coach Micah Shrewsberry continues to shape the roster with a little help from the transfer portal. On Monday, the Nittany Lions added another addition to the roster with a transfer commitment from Michael Henn, a power forward who most recently played for Denver.
Henn is a 6′-7″ 230-lb power forward and he could be sliding right into the starting lineup for Shrewsberry.
Penn State will be the fifth Division 1 program he has played for during his well-traveled college career. Henn started his basketball career with UC-Davis in 2016-17 but spent the next three seasons with California Baptist. From there, Henn transferred to Portland for the 2020-21 season, and then to Denver for 2021-22.
Last season for Denver, Henn played in 32 games with 27 starts. He averaged 8.8 points per game and 3.5 defensive rebounds per game.
Henn’s versatility on offense is what drew Penn State to him, and the Nittany Lions were not alone. Henn had Illinois and Notre Dame in his top three at the time of his decision, along with Penn State.
