Timeline

1976

Raja Dia Bell (born September 19, 1976) is an American former professional basketball player.

He played in the National Basketball Association (NBA) for the Philadelphia 76ers, Dallas Mavericks, Utah Jazz, Phoenix Suns, Charlotte Bobcats, and Golden State Warriors.

He was twice named to the NBA All-Defensive Team in his career.

1999

Bell went undrafted out of college in the 1999 NBA draft.

Bell began his professional career with the Yakima Sun Kings of the Continental Basketball Association (CBA).

2000

He was selected to the CBA All-Rookie Team in 2000.

Bell signed as a free agent with the San Antonio Spurs on August 2, 2000, but never played a game for them.

He played limited minutes in the final five of the Sixers' games in the 2000–01 regular season, but saw action in 15 of the team's 23 playoff games.

2001

He was eventually released, and then signed the first of two 10 day contracts with the Philadelphia 76ers on April 6, 2001.

Bell later signed a contract for the rest of the season after the two 10 day contracts expired.

The little-used Bell starred in Game 7 of the 2001 Eastern Conference Finals, scoring 10 points (all in the 2nd quarter) and rallying the Sixers from an early deficit against the Bucks as the 76ers won easily.

He played in all five games for the 76ers in the 2001 NBA Finals.

Bell played in 74 games with the Sixers in the 2001–02 NBA season, averaging 3.4 points per game, and played in three of the team's five playoff games as the Sixers suffered a five-game playoff series loss to the Boston Celtics.

2002

On October 1, 2002, Bell signed as a free agent with the Dallas Mavericks, and he averaged 3.1 points in 15.6 minutes per game.

For the first time in his NBA career, he gained extensive starting experience, starting in 32 of the 75 games he played.

2003

Bell averaged 5.7 points and 3.0 rebounds per game in 17 post-season games with the 2003 Mavericks as the team advanced to the Western Conference Finals.

On September 26, 2003, Bell signed with the Utah Jazz, and enjoyed what had been his most successful season since entering the NBA.

Bell played in all 82 of the Jazz's games, and despite starting in only four of them, he posted career highs with 11.2 points, 2.9 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 24.6 minutes per game.

2004

In the 2004–05 season he slightly improved upon these stats with 12.3 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 1.4 assists per game, despite playing in only 63 games.

2005

On August 3, 2005, Bell signed with the Phoenix Suns.

Bell responded to the presence of Steve Nash and became an extremely solid contributor.

He started in all 79 games he played in, and finished the 2005–06 season averaging 14.7 points per game in 37.5 minutes per game.

Bell also hit a career high 44.2% of his 3-point field goal attempts during the 2005–06 season.

2006

He was chosen to participate in the 2006 NBA Footlocker Three-Point Shootout, but did not participate due to a family illness and was replaced by Gilbert Arenas.

One of the most notable incidents of Bell's career occurred in the 2006 NBA Playoffs on May 2, 2006, in Game 5 of a first round series against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Bell clotheslined Lakers shooting guard Kobe Bryant on a hard foul, resulting in an ejection (with 7:33 left to play in the game).

In the postgame press conference, Bell explained that he was retaliating to an elbow to the jaw from Bryant.

"It's a personal thing when someone continually hits you in the face. That's the only way I can put it. I've been playing as hard as I can play. I've been trying to do a good job, I've been trying to be what my team needs me to be, and I continually get hit in my face. There doesn't seem to be any boundaries or limitations for what he's allowed to do to me, and at that point, I kind of lost my cool and I took it into my own hands."

Bell was suspended for one game after his clothesline.

The Suns eventually won the series in 7 games.

During the next round of the 2006 NBA Playoffs, Bell demonstrated his clutch abilities in Game 5 with a last second three-pointer in overtime against the Los Angeles Clippers to tie the game and send it into double-overtime, where the Suns eventually pulled away to win and go up 3 to 2 in the series.

In Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals against the Dallas Mavericks, midway through the fourth quarter, Bell sustained a calf injury which forced him to miss the rest of the game, as well as the next two games of the series.

Bell returned in Game 4 to help the Suns tie the series at two games apiece, though they eventually fell to the Mavericks.

2007

On January 5, 2007, Bell was suspended one game without pay for kicking Andrea Bargnani in a road game against the Toronto Raptors.

2014

Bell spent the 2014–15 season as the director of player development for the Cleveland Cavaliers.

He is now a podcast host for The Ringer.

Bell was born on Saint Croix, in the U.S. Virgin Islands and grew up in the greater Miami, Florida area, attending Ponce de Leon Junior High School, Gulliver Academy and Miami Killian Senior High School.

He began his college career at Boston University, where he was America East Conference (then called North Atlantic Conference) Freshman of the Year.

But after his sophomore year, Bell left Boston University for non-basketball related reasons.

He then transferred to Florida International University (FIU) in Miami for his junior and senior seasons.
