Illinois searches for playing time for freshmen
January 28, 2012 8:23 AM
Illinois coach Bruce Weber promised he has not forgotten about freshman Myke Henry.
Henry made the most of his minutes by scoring 18 points in a three-game span against Purdue, Northwestern and Nebraska, but since then he has languished on the bench. In five minutes at Penn State, Henry did not take a shot, and he didn't play against Wisconsin.
"He can get it in the hoop," Weber said. "He plays without nervousness. We have to get him in early."
