Martell Webster was working on a comeback a couple years ago. My daughter's trainer was working with him after one of their sessions.

He was incredibly friendly and really made the girls night by taking a minute to chat with them.

I really appreciated that.

Didn't he have a 24 point quarter as a Blazer against the Jazz?
