Against the Tigers, the senior scored a game-high 25 points including 19 after halftime on 6-of-12 shooting from behind the arc and dished out a career-high 7 assists.

Henderson scored 19 points, 16 of which came in the second half, as Ole Miss erased a 10-point halftime deficit to knock off South Carolina on the road Saturday. It was the first win in Columbia for the Rebels since 2001.
