Basketball players David Gregg and Terry Long of the University of Maryland have pleaded innocent to charges of obstructing justice and cocaine possession in connection with the death of star forward Len Bias. Their attorney, Alan Goldstein, is expected to ask for a jury trial on the charges.

Gregg and Long are suspected of having been in the College Park campus dormitory room when Bias, the No. 1 draft choice of the Boston Celtics of the NBA, collapsed and died of cocaine intoxication June 19.

Another friend of Bias, former junior varsity basketball player Brian Tribble, has been charged with bringing cocaine into the dorm on the morning of the death.
