Kansas Jayhawk Xavier Henry expected to turn pro, but where’s he going?

Update: It’s official. Xavier Henry is going pro.

Xavier Henry
is likely one-and-done at Kansas. The freshman guard is expected to announce that he’s heading to the NBA at a 3 p.m. press conference today (you can watch it here). Fox Sports basketball writer Jeff Goodman reports via Twitter that he’s gone.

Henry had a good freshman campaign, averaging 13.4 points and 4.4 rebounds per game. He also hit 69 three pointers on the year and shot a cold-blooded 41.8 percent from the three-point stripe.

Dime ran an NBA Draft Profile of Henry

yesterday, breaking down his strengths (great body, sweet shot) and

weaknesses (he’s unproven as a first-option scorer, poor shot

selection) as well as comparing him to Atlanta Hawks All-Star Joe Johnson and ex-Jayhawk and current Boston Celtic Paul Pierce.

So where’s he going?
