Webber moved to Kearney from Arizona last year. His dad is a professional shooting coach. 6'6" wing who averaged 18 PPG and shot 42% from 3 on 8.3 attempts per game as a sophomore for the Bearcats.
He played for ETG in Omaha last spring and summer, starting on the 16U team then moving up to the 17U one. I watched 31 of his games (15 with the 16U team, 16 with the 17U team). He shot 39.1% from 3 on 9.6 attempts per game, a ton of them off movement and a handful off the dribble. I've never seen a shot-hunter quite like him come through here. He ended up leading the 17U team in scoring average. Special shooting prospect. He also has pretty good touch from mid-range and in. He doesn't really care if there's a hand in his face; he's going to shoot almost every time he touches it if he has even a little space. Concerns would be he doesn't do a ton else other than shooting and he needs to get better laterally to hold up on defense.
Iowa offered him in June after he hit 9 3s in a game in front of McCaffery. Cal and Washington have also offered.
