Len Kevin Bias born on 18th November 1963 died on 19th June 1986, was a first team All-American college basketball player who suffered a fatal cardiac arrhythmia that resulted from a cocaine overdose less than 48 hours after being selected second overall by the Boston Celtics in the 1986 NBA Draft.

ESPN film series “30 for 30″ this week as it premieres Kirk Fraser’s “Without Bias,” a look at the career, death and impact of one-time University of Maryland basketball star Len Bias.

A film about Len Bias’s life, directed by Kirk Fraser, was promoted at the 2008 Sundance film festival and is scheduled to be released June 19, 2009.

The death of Len Bias still has power, and the film captures some of that. But while it could have been a poignant meditation on all that promise lost, it merely leaves you feeling sad and somewhat confused about this athlete who died so young.

The film premieres at 8 p.m. Tuesday on ESPN.
