Len Kevin Bias was an American college basketball player who suffered a fatal cardiac arrhythmia that resulted from a cocaine overdose less than 48 hours after being selected by the Boston Celtics in the 1986 NBA Draft. Bias was the second player selected in the draft, after Brad Daugherty of the Cleveland Cavaliers.

I would have loved to have seen Len Bias, on the Celtics, guard Magic Johnson. In 1991, Pippen kind of held Magic in check. Bias, i believe would have done the same. Such a shame. He would have done a lot of the dirty work on those celtic teams and allowed someone like Bird to just worry about shooting. Coack K from duke says the 2 best players he ever saw were Jordan and Bias. What could have been.
RIP. great player.

Bird, Michale, Parrish were all on the downside of their careers about time the early 90′s came. The would have still had Lewis(if were still living)and Bias who would have been talented but still would need more than that. So maybe the pistons wouldn’t have got a ring but the bulls would pretty sure get those six rings

I’m sick and tired people of giving “what if’s” a pass just because of poor decisions they made.Len bias KNEW cocaine was bad. He made poor decision. Did he help the Celtics franchise? Did he help Bird’s and mchale’s career? Look how long it took the Celtics to win a ring? Len Bias was a fucking bust just like Jay Williams was! To all the idiots that say Len Bias was the best college player of all time,smh….LOL…..Have you guys ever heard of the name Pistol Pete Maravich?
May Len Bias rest in peace. But fuck,I call it the way I see it.
thahoodnigga is a fucking idiot.
