Charles Edward Smith IV (born November 29, 1967) is a retired American professional basketball player who played with the Boston Celtics and Minnesota Timberwolves in the NBA.

Smith was born in Washington, D.C., where he attended All Saints. At Georgetown University, he was the Big East Men's Basketball Player of the Year for the 1988–89 season.

Smith also played for the 1988 United States Men's Olympic Basketball Team, the last American team not to feature professional players.

After his college career, Smith went undrafted during the 1989 NBA draft. But he went on to play for the Boston Celtics and the Minnesota Timberwolves.

On March 12, 1992, Smith was convicted of vehicular homicide and leaving the scene of a crime, in the hit-and-run deaths of two Boston University students on March 22, 1991. He subsequently served time in prison.

On October 21, 2010, Smith was shot twice in the chest at his home in Bowie, Maryland. Smith underwent surgery and survived. The next day, police discovered "large quantity of cocaine and evidence of a gambling operation" in a search of his home.
