Charles Salim Stoudamire (born October 11, 1982 in Portland, Oregon) is a professional basketball player in the NBA currently playing with the Atlanta Hawks.
Stoudamire was selected by the Atlanta Hawks in the second round (31st overall pick) of the 2005 NBA Draft. At the University of Arizona, Stoudamire led the Wildcats to an Elite Eight appearance in 2005 (He and Channing Frye were the first four-year players at UA not to make a Final Four appearance since the 1980s). Stoudamire hit a fadeaway shot with less than 2 seconds on the clock to beat Oklahoma State University. He also broke the individual three-point percentage record (shot 50.4%), previously held by NBA player Steve Kerr. He is best known for his quick release, long range, and deadly accuracy.
Stoudamire is a cousin of former Portland Trail Blazers point guard Damon Stoudamire, currently with the Memphis Grizzlies.
Stoudamire graduated from Lake Oswego High School in Lake Oswego, Oregon as a member of the Class of 2001.
