The Tall Blacks guard Tai Webster's dream of NBA basketball career is a step closer after being included in the Miami Heat's roster for upcoming summer league tournaments in Sacramento and Las Vegas.

The 23 year old is missing the Tall Blacks World Cup qualifying games against Hong Kong and China in a bid to make the NBA after completing his first year as a professional playing in Germany.

Webster missed the 2017 NBA Draft after spending four seasons at the University of Nebraska.
