MUNCIE, Ind. — Bonzi Wells wishes this chance to get back on the court existed four or five years ago. That’s when he says he was really playing at a high level. But nevertheless, he doesn’t mince words about the opportunity in front of him this summer to rejoin some of his old NBA pals and play in front of a national television audience each week.
The former Muncie Central and Ball State star hasn’t played in the NBA since 2008 but will step back into the spotlight with the BIG3, a 3-on-3 basketball league founded by rapper/actor Ice Cube.
