Jazz officials watched Webster work out Friday at the team's practice facility, and they came away impressed with the 6-foot-7 swingman from Seattle Prep in Washington. "He is a wonderful talent," Jazz vice president of basketball operations Kevin O'Connor said. "You watch him shoot the ball - how easy it is, how fluid he is - and you see that basketball comes easy to him. He doesn't know it all yet. But it comes easy." "I'm always amazed at the composure these kids show," coach Jerry Sloan said. DeShawn Stevenson is the one and only high school player ever drafted by the Jazz. He was taken with the 23rd pick in 2000. Webster won't last until the 23rd pick of this draft. He is a certain lottery pick and could go anywhere from No. 5 to No. 12. The Jazz have the sixth pick. Webster averaged 27.7 points and 10 rebounds as a high school senior. He missed most of his junior year because of a chipped bone and damaged tendons in his foot. Webster had 16 points and six rebounds in the McDonald's All-American Game. He finished with 21 points on 9-for-14 shooting as the USA Select Team defeated the World Select team in the Nike Hoop Summit, 106-98. Asked about his workout with the Jazz, Webster said, "It was competitive. I didn't shoot the ball as well as I hoped I would. But that happens in the game of basketball." The other three players who participated in the workout with Webster were Ronnie Price of Utah Valley State, Omar Thomas of UTEP and Dijon Thompson of UCLA. </div> Source
