Karl Malone played in the NBA for 19 years and spent 18 of those with the Utah Jazz. He was drafted by the Jazz as the 13th overall pick in the 1985 NBA draft. Together with John Stockton, they dismantled the oppositions and enjoyed great success.

Malone was a 14-time All-Star and was also awarded the All-Star MVP twice (1989,1993). He was very consistent and made it to the All-NBA first team, eleven consecutive times. He is second on the list of all-time points scored with 36928 career points.

He made it to the post-season in all the 19 seasons that he was part of and lost in the Finals twice (1997,1998). On both these occasions, the Jazz's finals opponent was the Michael Jordan's Bulls and Jordan ensured that Malone doesn't get a ring and defeated the Jazz both the times in six games.
