Early career
Born in Auckland, Webster attended Westlake Boys High School where he led them to the National Secondary Schools Basketball Championships in October 2012, scoring 24 points en route to garnering tournament MVP honours. While attending Westlake, he played basketball for the North Harbour juniors; from 2010 to 2012, he played for the North Harbour U17s, U19s and U21s.

In 2012, Webster played for the Auckland Pirates, where in two games, he recorded a total of two points and two assists. The Pirates went on to win the 2012 championship with an 89–83 win over the Wellington Saints in the grand final.

In August 2012, Webster joined the New Zealand Breakers as a non-contracted development player for the 2012–13 NBL season. In December 2012, he signed a National Letter of Intent to play college basketball at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln.

In April 2013, Webster signed with the Waikato Pistons for the 2013 New Zealand NBL season. In 15 games for Waikato, he averaged 18.5 points, 3.9 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 2.0 steals per game. He had never heard of Nebraska when he was recruited, but signed with the team anyway.
