seaofred92 Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 personally I think him in the NBA is an uphill battle but I hope he can somehow find his way onto at least a D League team: http://www.ketv.com/article/making-the-case-for-drafting-tai-webster/10040063 Skill in pick-and-roll sets For as long as basketball has invaded our homes, the pick-and-roll has come with it. Anyone with a rudimentary interest in the NBA can recognize the merits of the offensive staple, which, during the 2016-17 regular season, was ran 46,155 times by ball handlers, an average of 1,538.5 times per team. Webster was particularly proficient at it. He scored six points per contest and 186 total points as a ball handler his senior season, according to data provided by Synergy Sports. Those totals ranked 24th and 27th, respectively. Limit your search field to major-conference Division 1 players and he ranked fifth and sixth. In a league saturated with point guards unlike any time before it, Webster, a 6-foot-4 combo guard, will enter the professional ranks with the playmaking ability to run the supersized two-man game. Only two players in the Big Ten Conference scored more total points in those situations; in fact, Webster scored more than the entire rosters of Purdue (137), Michigan State (159), Ohio State (176), Indiana (178) and 98 other Division 1 squads. 1 Quote Link to comment
Cdog923 Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Yea, there's no way he gets drafted. Probably no way he makes a D-league team, yet. His best bet would probably be playing overseas for a couple of years and trying his hand after that. Quote Link to comment
