    That's happened to a few players.. I remember Celtic player Reggie Lewis collapsing and dying on the court.. Hank Gathers too. Hearts just gave out..

    Unfortunately seems to be a condition that super tall guys are prone to. I’ll never forget Gathers dying on the court. That guy was a beast. Would have been fun to watch in NBA.

    I'll wait to hear from the cardiologist first whether he can still play collegiate sports.

    Could be brought on by drug and cocaine abuse as well..

    Was wondering if Lamar would collapse one day eating candy and smoking crack regularly but he never did. Jon Jones too.. Some people just have good genes and strong hearts.. Heart disease can usually be traced back to generations..

    Yup Len Bias was hyped big time and the hype may have been legit.. I remember they were comparing him to a bigger Jordan at the time.. He had big game before he died for sure. I think they made 30 for 30 after him if I'm not mistaken??? He was that good I guess Chico...
