    Tall Blacks coach knew Corey Webster would start finding the bottom of the net

    Tall Blacks coach Paul Henare knew it was only a matter of time before Corey Webster started to find the bottom of the net


    The guard had 33 points in their latest basketball World Cup warm-up game against Canada.

    Henare says Webster hadn't played consistently since the end of the Breakers season at the end of the year.



    The Tall Blacks are on their way to China to play a warm-up tournament against France, Italy and Serbia, before the World Cup begins on September 1st.
