About Karl Malone, Hall of Famer

Karl Malone, nicknamed 'the Mailman,' spent 18 seasons in the NBA, primarily with the Utah Jazz and finishing his career with the Los Angeles Lakers. Paired with teammate John Stockton, he formed one of basketball's great duos, leading the Jazz to NBA Finals appearances in 1997 and 1998, though both ended in losses to the Chicago Bulls. Malone retired as the third all-time leading scorer with 36,928 points and holds records for most free throws made and attempted. He made 11 first-team All-NBA selections and appeared in the playoffs every season of his career. A two-time Olympic gold medalist, Malone was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2010 for both his individual career and as part of the 1992 U.S. Olympic team.
