Analysis:

Webster is yet to play this season after undergoing surgery to repair a herniated disk back in June. The 28-year-old will likely need to get a few more full practices under his belt before the team considers bringing him back, but once he's ready, he should step in and contribute right away. Last season, Webster averaged 9.7 points and 2.8 rebounds per game while shooting nearly 40 percent from three. Upon his return, he'll compete with Otto Porter and Rasual Butler for time off the bench.
