We end with the most tragic story of all, the sad saga of Len Bias.  While at least Gathers went down while playing the game he loved, Bias was cut down by cocaine in 1986, as he overdosed while partying in his campus dorm with friends, celebrating his selection as the number two pick of  the draft by the defending NBA champion Boston Celtics.
