  • Len Bias dianggap sebagai pebasket dengan kemampuan setara Michael Jordan.
  • Len Bias diyakini bisa jadi rival berat Michael Jordan jika masih hidup.
  • Len Bias tewas karena overdosis kokain, kurang dari 24 jam setelah teken kontrak dengan Boston Celtics.

SKOR.id - Len Bias mungkin tak sepopuler Michael Jordan di kalangan awam. Tapi, mereka yang menyukai basket dunia, mungkin pernah mendengarnya. 

Pria kelahiran 18 November 1963 tersebut dianggap sebagai pebasket dengan kemampuan setara MJ, sebutan lain untuk Michael Jordan.

Len Bias yang sempat membela Universitas Maryland pada 1980-an memiliki proporsi tubuh yang serupa dengan legenda NBA tersebut. 

Jay Bilas, rivalnya saat masih bertanding di universitas, mengatakan kepada ESPN bahwa Len Bias adalah pemain muda bertalenta.

Seandainya tidak tewas karena overdosis kokain, Len Bias diyakini bisa jadi legenda NBA atau sama seperti Michael Jordan.

"Dia sangat tangguh, memiliki tembakan luar biasa dan proporsi tubuh yang indah. Sulit dihadang siapa pun," kata Jay Bilas. 

Sebagai informasi, Jay Bilas pernah menghadapi Len Bias di pertandingan level kampus. Saat itu, dia membela Universitas Duke.

"Mungkin (jika Bias masih hidup), dominasi Jordan tetap ada. Tapi, Bias akan menjadi rival beratnya. Dia sangat bertalenta," lanjutnya.

Sayangnya, Len Bias meninggal dunia di usia muda, 22 tahun, karena overdosis kokain. Padahal, dia diambang tampil di NBA 1996. 

Pria dengan tinggi 203 sentimeter itu meregang nyawa kurang dari 24 jam usai Boston Celtics memasukkan namanya dalam draf NBA.

Len Bias yang diharapkan bisa jadi legenda Celtics seperti Larry Bird atau Kevin McHale, meninggal dunia pada 19 Juni 1986.
