The 6’10 center out of Normal, Illinois is considered a 3-star prospect by multiple publications, including ESPN.
He competed for the Normal Ironmen in the 4A State Finals this past season in a 60-48 loss to Homewood-Flossmoor. He had 2 points, 6 rebounds (3 offensive rebounds), 3 assists, and 2 blocks in the State Championship game.
SIU had offered Webber under Bryan Mullins in 2022.
