More on Karl Malone
Description from Wikipedia:
Karl Anthony Malone (born July 24, 1963) is a retired American professional basketball player.
Born in Summerfield, Louisiana, he was nicknamed in college as the Mailman for his consistency ("the mailman always delivers") and his work in the post. Malone twice won the National Basketball Association (NBA) Most Valuable Player award. He is generally considered one of the greatest power forwards in NBA history, and has scored the second most points in NBA history (36,942 pts. scored in his entire career), trailing only Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
On May 30, 2007, Malone was named creator of basketball promotion and assistant strength and dieting coach at his alma mater, Louisiana Tech University in Ruston.
Malone spent his first 18 seasons (1985–2003) as the star player for the Utah Jazz forming a formidable duo with his teammate John Stockton. He then played one season (2003-04) for the Los Angeles Lakers before retiring.
Malone's jersey was retired on March 23, 2006, when the Jazz hosted the Washington Wizards. He was also honored with the unveiling of a bronze statue outside the EnergySolutions Arena next to teammate John Stockton, and the renaming of a portion of 100 South in Salt Lake City in his honor. The intersection where the Stockton and Malone statues stand is now the intersection of Stockton and Malone.
