Charles Richard "Bubba" Wells is a retired American professional basketball player. He played briefly for the Dallas Mavericks of the NBA. He played collegiately for Austin Peay State University and was named 1997 Ohio Valley Conference Player of the Year. Selected 34th by the Mavs in the 1997 NBA Draft, the little-used small forward's NBA career was short-lived, consisting of just 39 games of the 1997?98 season. However, he did start two games in March 1998, in place of the injured Cedric Ceballos. His NBA career came to an abrupt end in 1998, after he was traded to the Phoenix Suns along with Martin M��rsepp, the draft rights to Pat Garrity, and a future first-round draft pick in exchange for point guard Steve Nash. Wells never played a game for the Suns. He was later traded to the Chicago Bulls, also for whom he never played. He later played for the LaCrosse Bobcats of the CBA, the Oklahoma Storm of USBL, the Memphis Houn'Dawgs of the ABA, and overseas in Greece and the Philippines. He played for the Harlem Globetrotters in 2004?05. Since June 2005, Wells has been an assistant men's basketball coach at Austin Peay.
