Danny Roundfield - Played for Indiana (ABA), Atlanta, Detroit and Washington. Drowned in 2012 savings his wife from drowning. I saw him play at Central Michigan University (71-75). He was who we came to see play at that time.
He dabbled in coke for a few years. In that draft it was known Chris Washburn and Roy Tarpley also were coke users they were drafted early as well. When you do that kinda stuff you're just a ticking time bomb.
@billybandyk0720 No doubt. I think in part his story lives on because he was drafted by the Boston Celtics and Bias dying impacted the biggest rivalry in the NBA. Had the Celtics drafted Chuck Person who went 4 to Indiana like many in the organization wanted it would be interesting to see how things would have turned out.
@billybandyk0720 But I agree with you on your initial statement and I am not sure there is a bigger what if story in sports history than "what if len bias had not died"
There's several player's on this list of which I had no idea had passed. I'll never forget the NC State Championship when Lorenzo Charles caught the air ball and made the winning bucket! It's a sad list especially in regards to those who's lives were taken via homicide or Murder!
I guess this guy’s definition of the 50 greatest basketball players who’ve died is a little different from mine. Wilt, Bill Russell, Nate the Great Thurmond all come to mind.
No Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlain, Wes Unseld, Ben Wilson, Nate Thurmond, Hank Gathers, Mark Eaton, or Connie Hawkins. Well there's a picture of Connie on here but it's for Robert "Bubbles" Hawkins. Just like Bol Bol's picture is here instead of his father Manute.
Forgot about Robert Tractor Traylor. Big man RIP.
Forgot Rodney Rogers also
Lorenzen Wright too.
Why bol bol was there? His father was the one who died and not bol bol.
My bolbol dies when I didn't take a bath XD
@@billyandrade7608 stfu isnt funny
I was about to say the same ish
Lol hahaha
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Kevin Duckworth, Jerome Kersey, Clifford Robinson…3 Blazers from the 1992 Finals
The amount of Heart Attacks is surprising
well they’re very tall so it’s normal actually
Some of them have bodies that are too big for the heart to handle..
Sometimes it is drug use.........I know one in the line up.
Because of using excessive amounts of steroids and perfomance enhancer.
Shouldn't be... black people are more prone to it
What about Lorenzen Wright? That was a cold blooded tragedy.
What about Brian Williams (Bison Dele)?
