I don't see how playing for Magic would have fixed his bad knees.


Gotta assume he meant initially, in 94.

The Fab Five was some of the most entertaining basketball I've ever had the pleasure of watching. Webber will be missed.

According to NCAA the "Fab five" did not exist.

Cwebb was my favorite player when he was healthy. He had a great career. A power foward who can do everything...post moves, jump shot, dribble well, pass well, rebound, block shots.

I remember the night he was drafted...and the Magic traded him.

Man, he was sick back in his Kings days. I remember playing NBA 2K1 at my friend's house and Webb and the Kings were straight up dominating the team I was playing with.

If it didn't come now, it was to come at the end of the season. The man had a great career, but he is too old and injuries catching up.
