The Lipscomb Signee is such a difficult check in high school because of his shifty handle, deep range, and dynamic quick first step. Wells is a bonafide leader with this group, and should have some monster nights in the backcourt alongside DJ West DJ West 6'5" | SG Trinity Academy Raleigh | 2027 State NC .

Wells was impressive in leading the attack for TAR at the off-guard role.
