Basketball Hall of Fame as player

Moses Eugene Malone (March 23, 1955 – September 13, 2015) was an American basketball player who played in both the American Basketball Association (ABA) and the National Basketball Association (NBA) from 1974 through 1995. The center was named the NBA Most Valuable Player (MVP) three times and was a 12-time NBA All-Star and an eight-time All-NBA selection. Malone won his only NBA championship in 1983, when he was both the league and Finals MVP with the Philadelphia 76ers. He was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility in 2001.

Malone began his pro career out of high school after he was selected in the third round of the 1974 ABA Draft by the Utah Stars. He was named an ABA All-Star as a rookie and played two seasons in the league until it merged with the NBA in 1976. He landed in the NBA with the Buffalo Braves, who traded him after two games to the Houston Rockets. Malone became a five-time All-Star in six seasons with the Rockets. After leading the NBA in rebounding in 1979, he was named league MVP for the first time. He led the Rockets to the NBA Finals in 1981, and won his second MVP award in 1982. Malone was traded to Philadelphia the following season, when he repeated as MVP and led the 76ers to a championship in his first year. In his first of two stints with Philadelphia, he was an All-Star in each of his four seasons. Following another trade, Malone was an All-Star in his only two seasons with the Washington Bullets (known later as the Wizards). He signed as a free agent with the Atlanta Hawks, earning his 12th straight and final All-Star selection in his first season. In his later years, he played with the Milwaukee Bucks before returning to the 76ers and completing his career with the San Antonio Spurs.

Malone led the NBA in rebounding six times, including a record five-straight seasons (1981–1985). He finished his career as the all-time leader in offensive rebounds after leading both the ABA and NBA in the category a combined nine times. Malone was nicknamed "Chairman of the Boards" for his rebounding prowess.[1] Combining his ABA and NBA statistics, he ranks seventh all-time in career points (29,580) and third in total rebounds (17,834). He was named to both the ABA All-Time Team and the NBA's 50th Anniversary All-Time Team.

Early life

Malone was born in Petersburg, Virginia. He was an only child, raised alone by his mother, Mary, who had dropped out of school after finishing the fifth grade. When Malone was two years old, Mary kicked her husband out due to his alcohol use.[2] Malone's father then moved to Texas.[3]

Malone attended Petersburg High School, where he played basketball. Petersburg went undefeated in his final two years, winning 50 games and the Virginia state championship in both years.[2] Malone signed a letter of intent to play college basketball for the Terrapins at the University of Maryland.[4] However, the Utah Stars of the ABA selected Malone in the third round of the 1974 ABA Draft.[5]

Professional career

ABA career

Malone began his professional career with Utah in the 1974–75 season after signing a five-year contract worth $1 million.[6] The New York Times called him "the first high schooler in modern basketball to go directly to the pros",[3] joining the few players who had made the transition in an era before him.[7] He was 6 feet 10 inches (2.08 m) and a somewhat skinny 215 pounds (98 kg) at the time[3][5] and began his career playing at forward until he bulked up enough to handle the rigors at center.[5] As a rookie, he was named an ABA All-Star and earned ABA All-Rookie honors.[5] The Stars folded after the season, and Malone was sold to the ABA's Spirits of St. Louis to help pay down the Stars' debts. Malone played for the Spirits in the 1975–76 season.[1][8] In two seasons in the ABA, Malone averaged 17.2 points and 12.9 rebounds per game.[9]

Early years in the NBA

The ABA-NBA merger occurred after the 1975–76 season, but the Spirits of St. Louis were not among the ABA teams chosen to join the NBA.[10] Malone had already been selected by the NBA's New Orleans Jazz in a December 1975 pre-merger draft for ABA players of undergraduate age. However, the NBA let them place Malone into the 1976 ABA dispersal draft pool in exchange for the return of their first-round draft pick in 1977, which they used to trade for Gail Goodrich.[11] In the 1976 dispersal draft, held for the remaining ABA players, Malone was selected by the Portland Trail Blazers with the fifth overall pick in the draft.[2] However, he never appeared in a regular-season game for the Blazers. The Blazers had also acquired power forward Maurice Lucas in the draft and believed they had acquired two players with similar skill sets. Concerns over the team's salary costs compelled them to choose one and release the other. Portland chose to keep Lucas and traded Malone to the Buffalo Braves prior to the first game of the 1976–77 season for a first-round draft choice in the 1978 NBA Draft and $232,000.[12] Malone played in two games with Buffalo. Because they could not meet Malone's demands for playing time, they then traded him to the Houston Rockets in exchange for two first-round draft picks, one in each of the 1977 and 1978 drafts.[13]

With the Rockets, Malone played forward opposite Rudy Tomjanovich.[2] He appeared in 82 games overall for both Buffalo and Houston and finished the season averaging 13.2 points per game (ppg) with 13.1 rebounds per game (rpg), ranking third in rpg. Malone set a then-NBA record with 437 offensive rebounds in a season, though he surpassed that mark two years later.[14] Malone also blocked 2.21 shots per game, the seventh-most in the league.[15] In the second game of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Washington Bullets, Malone recorded 15 offensive rebounds in the overtime win, setting an NBA playoff record.[16] The Rockets reached the Eastern Conference Finals, where they lost 4–2 to the Philadelphia 76ers.[17]

During his second season in the NBA, Malone was diagnosed with a stress fracture in his right foot, which caused him to miss the final 23 games of the season.[18] Despite the time missed to injury, Malone led the NBA with 380 total offensive rebounds and finished second with 15.0 rpg. Malone made his first appearance in an NBA All-Star Game in 1978.[1] His scoring improved to 19.4 ppg.[5]

MVP seasons with the Houston Rockets

During the 1978–79 season, Malone emerged as one of the top centers in the league after gaining 15 pounds (6.8 kg) in the offseason.[2][5] He averaged 24.8 points with a career-best .540 shooting percentage and established another career-high with a league-leading 17.6 rpg while winning the NBA Most Valuable Player Award.[5][19] He again led the league in offensive rebounds, setting an all-time single-season record with 587 offensive rebounds.[20] He was voted to the All-NBA First Team[21] and the All-Defensive Second Team.[22] He was also voted by fans to start for the East at center in the 1979 NBA All-Star Game. On February 9, he grabbed a career-high 37 rebounds versus the New Orleans Jazz.[23] Although the Rockets qualified for the playoffs, they were eliminated by the Atlanta Hawks in a first-round sweep. Malone averaged 24.5 points and 20.5 rebounds in the two games.[5]

In 1979–80, Malone averaged 25.8 points, fifth-best in the NBA, and 14.5 rebounds, second-best in the league. He was named an All-Star for a third straight season and was also named to the All-NBA Second Team.[21] In the opening round of the playoffs, Houston defeated the San Antonio Spurs in a best-of-three series. Malone registered 37 points and 20 rebounds in the deciding third game, leading the Rockets to a 141–120 victory. In the conference semifinals, the Rockets lost in a sweep to the Boston Celtics.[24] The following season in 1980–81 season, Malone led the league with 14.8 rpg in 80 games and was again an All-Star as well as a member of the All-NBA Second Team.[21] He finished second in scoring (28.8) to Adrian Dantley (30.7).[25] On March 11, Malone scored 51 points against the Golden State Warriors.[26]

In their first season in the Midwest Division, Houston and the Kansas City Kings tied for second place with identical 40–42 records. The Rockets, with Malone's 26.8 ppg and 14.5 rpg during the playoffs, reached the 1981 NBA Finals, but lost 4–2 to the Celtics. During the season, Malone averaged 31.1 points with 14.7 rebounds the following year and won his second MVP award.[27] He repeated as the NBA leader in rebounds and was the runner-up for the league's scoring title to George Gervin (32.3). He was also the league leader in offensive rebounds (558) and minutes played (3,398, 42.0 per game). At the end of the season, Malone earned his second placement on the All-NBA First Team.[21] He set a career high in scoring average and also set a single-game career high with 53 points on February 2 against the San Diego Clippers. Days later on February 11 against the Seattle SuperSonics, Malone eclipsed his own league record with 21 offensive rebounds.[16] In Malone's last season in Houston, the Rockets followed their NBA Finals appearance in 1981[28] with a first-round exit in the 1982 playoffs. Though he averaged 24.0 points with 17.0 rebounds, Seattle swept Houston 3–0.[29]

Championship in Philadelphia

Malone became a restricted free agent after the 1981–82 season. He signed an offer sheet of six-years for $13.2 million with Philadelphia on September 2, 1982. The 76ers were coming off a 4–2 loss in the Finals to the Los Angeles Lakers, whose center, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, dominated their big-man duo of Darryl Dawkins and Caldwell Jones. The Rockets were changing ownership and decided that Malone's $2 million annual salary did not fit their plans.[30] Houston matched the offer and agreed to trade Malone to the 76ers for Jones and their first-round pick in the 1983 NBA Draft on September 15.[31] With Julius Erving, Maurice Cheeks, Andrew Toney, and Bobby Jones, the Sixers won the NBA championship. Malone was named the league MVP for the second straight year, becoming the only NBA player ever to win the award in consecutive seasons with two different teams, a feat matched only by Barry Bonds (1992–1993) in the four major American sports leagues.[32]

That year, Malone averaged 15.3 rebounds per game, which led the league for the third consecutive year, and also averaged 24.5 points, which was fifth-best in the NBA. He was an All-Star for the sixth consecutive season and earned first-team honors on both the All-NBA and All-Defensive teams.[21][22] The 76ers lost only one game in the postseason as they won the league championship, defeating the Lakers in a 4–0 sweep in the 1983 NBA Finals.[1] In 13 playoff games, Malone averaged 26.0 points with 15.8 rebounds. He was name the Finals MVP, having outrebounded Abdul-Jabbar 72–30 in the series.[33] It was also around this time that Malone began to tutor Hakeem Olajuwon, passing on the torch to the future Rockets superstar.[34]

His head coach Billy Cunningham said, "Let's not make believe. The difference from last year was Moses."[33] Before the playoffs began, Malone predicted in Southern vernacular that Philadelphia would go "fo, fo, fo," envisioning a four-game sweep in each of the playoff's three rounds.[3] His prediction (and its formulation) became famous: the New York Times called it "an enduring quotation" and "an unforgettable line,"[35] and Comcast SportsNet called it "one of the greatest rallying cries ever uttered."[36] As it turned out, the Sixers only lost one playoff game (Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals to the Bucks) en route to making Malone a world champion for the first time, sweeping the Knicks in the first round and the Lakers in the finals. This led some to rephrase Malone's prediction as "fo, fi, fo" (four, five, four). The inside of that year's championship ring was inscribed with "fo' fi' fo."[37] The 76ers' 12–1 cruise through the 1983 playoffs was the second-most-dominant playoff run in NBA history. (The 2001 Lakers went 15–1 in the extended four-round playoff set-up.)[16]

Post-championship

In the 1983–84 season, Malone led the league in rebounding with 13.4 rpg. He was limited to 71 games that season due to ankle injuries, his lowest since the 1977–78 season. Malone scored 22.7 ppg in his second season with Philadelphia and was named to the All-NBA Second Team.[21] Malone was selected again for the All-Star Game, but he was unable to play because of an ankle injury. During the season, he averaged 21.4 points with 13.8 rebounds in five games in the playoffs, but Philadelphia lost in a first-round upset against the New Jersey Nets.[5]

The Sixers selected Charles Barkley in the 1984 NBA Draft. When he reported to training camp at 300 pounds (140 kg), Malone began to mentor him, encouraging him to get in better shape. Barkley got down to 255 pounds (116 kg) and made the NBA All-Rookie Team.[38] In the 1984–85 season, Malone recorded 13.1 rpg, leading the NBA in rebounding for a record-setting fifth straight season.[20] He was voted by a fan ballot to the All-Star team for the eighth time and finished the season with 24.6 ppg, which ranked ninth-best in the league. He received his fourth All-NBA First Team honor[21] and finished third in the NBA Most Valuable Player Award balloting; the award was won by Larry Bird. Malone scored his 15,000th NBA point on November 28[39] and grabbed his 10,000th NBA rebound on March 29.[40] He scored 51 points against the Detroit Pistons on November 14. The 76ers reached the Eastern Conference Finals in 1985 but were defeated 4–1 by the Celtics.[41]

Malone's 1985–86 season ended when he suffered an orbital fracture in his right eye in a March 28 game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Despite hopes that he might return during the playoffs, he was ruled out for the postseason.[42] In the Eastern Conference Semifinals, Philadelphia lost 4–3 to the Bucks.[43] Malone averaged 23.8 points with 11.8 rebounds in 74 appearances that season.[44] He ranked seventh in the league in scoring and fourth in rebounding, ending his five season streak as the NBA rebounding champion.[45] Malone was named an All-Star, but he was not named to the All-NBA Team, the first time he was not selected since 1978.[21]

Washington Bullets

Shortly after the 1985–86 season, Philadelphia traded Malone, Terry Catledge, and two first-round draft picks to the Washington Bullets in exchange for Jeff Ruland and Clifford T. Robinson.[46] Malone bounced back from an injury-shortened 1985–86 campaign, averaging 24.1 points with 11.3 rebounds. He was named to his 10th consecutive All-Star Game and again was named to the All-NBA Second Team.[21] Malone was the only player to finish in the top 10 in both ppg and rpg; he placed ninth in both categories.[47]

Malone scored his 20,000th NBA point on April 12 against the Detroit Pistons.[48] He scored 50 points versus the New Jersey Nets on April 8,[49] joining Earl Monroe (56) and Phil Chenier (52) as the only Bullets players ever to score 50 points in a game. Washington appeared in the postseason but was swept by the Pistons in the first round. During the season, Malone averaged 20.7 points with 12.7 rebounds in the series.[50]

In his 12th NBA season, Malone ranked eighth in the NBA in rebounding (11.2) and 19th in scoring (20.3). Malone was named to his 11th consecutive All-Star Game in 1988. Malone scored in double figures in 76 of 79 games and recorded 55 double-doubles for the year. The Bullets reached the 1988 NBA Playoffs, but Detroit defeated the Bullets 4–1 in their first-round series. Malone averaged 18.6 points with 11.2 rebounds in the series.[1]

Atlanta Hawks

Before the 1988–89 season, Malone agreed to a three-year deal to play with Atlanta. The Hawks, featuring Dominique Wilkins, had won at least 50 games the prior three season and believed the free agent center was a missing piece to a championship.[51] During the season, Malone averaged 20.2 points with 11.8 rebounds. He was voted by a fan ballot to the 1989 NBA All-Star Game, which was his 12th straight and final appearance. Malone reached double figures in points in 75 of his 81 games and recorded double figures in rebounds 55 times. On February 4, 1989, he scored a season-high 37 points against the Phoenix Suns. The Hawks were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs by Milwaukee. In the series, Malone scored 21.0 ppg and had 12.0 rpg.[52]

The following season, Malone finished with 18.9 ppg and 10.0 rpg, ending a string of 11 consecutive 20–10 campaigns. Malone led the NBA with 364 offensive rebounds and tied for eighth in rpg. In Mike Fratello's final year as head coach, Atlanta finished with a 41–41 record, failing to qualify for the playoffs. Malone began the 1990–91 season as the Hawks' starting center, but after 15 games, Atlanta's new coach, Bob Weiss, made Jon Koncak the starter and Malone his backup for the final 67 contests.[53]

During the season, Malone averaged 10.6 points with 8.1 rebounds while playing 23.3 minutes per game—all career lows at that point. On November 3, against the Indiana Pacers, Malone became the NBA career leader in free throws made with 7,695, besting the previous record set by Oscar Robertson. On November 21, against the Bucks, Malone scored his 25,000th career point.[54] On March 15, he recorded his 15,000th career rebound against the Dallas Mavericks.[55] Malone surpassed Wilt Chamberlain's mark of consecutive games without fouling out with his 1,046th straight game against the Detroit Pistons on April 19.[56] The Hawks returned to the playoffs but were eliminated in the first round by Detroit, 4–1. In the series, Malone averaged just 4.2 points with 6.2 rebounds.[57]

Milwaukee Bucks

A free agent after the 1990–91 season, Malone signed with the Bucks, who named him their starting center for the 1991–92 season.[58] Malone played in all 82 games that season and averaged 15.6 points with 9.1 rebounds. He led the Bucks in rebounding and finished second on the team in scoring. He scored a season-high 30 points twice and grabbed 19 rebounds against the Seattle SuperSonics on March 27. Milwaukee finished with a 31–51 record, tied for last place of the Central Division with the Charlotte Hornets.[59]

After one practice in training camp in October 1992, Malone was sidelined due to a herniated disc in his back.[60] After trying to play through the pain, he decided to have surgery in November.[61] Recovery from the surgery caused Malone to miss the majority of the 1992–93 season.[62] He returned to the Bucks on March 27, appearing in 11 games during the remainder of the season.[63] Struggling with the younger players on their roster, the Bucks finished 28–54 and last in the Central Division.[64]

Return to the 76ers

The Sixers signed Malone as a free agent in August, so that he could back up 7-foot-6-inch (2.29 m) rookie Shawn Bradley and aid in Bradley's development.[65][66] Malone appeared in 55 games as a reserve for the 76ers, averaging 5.3 points with 4.1 rebounds.[67]

San Antonio Spurs

In 1994, Malone signed with the Spurs, where he was used as a back-up center to superstar David Robinson.[1][68] The 1994–95 NBA season was his last in the NBA. During the final game of his NBA career, against the Charlotte Hornets, he hit a buzzer-beating three-point shot from the opposing free throw line, eighty feet away from the goal. It was only the eighth three-pointer of his career. He played 17 games for the Spurs.[69]

Player profile

Malone stood 6 feet 10 inches (2.08 m) and weighed 260 pounds (120 kg).[70] He finished his career with the most combined ABA and NBA offensive rebounds (7,382), 35 percent over runner-up Artis Gilmore. Nine times he led his respective league in offensive rebounds, and five other times he finished in the top-3.[33] He also holds NBA records for the most offensive rebounds in a career (6,731), season (587), and game (21).[1] He was a 13-time All-Star, and earned eight All-NBA selections, ranking seventh all-time with 29,580 points, and third with 17,834 rebounds. He also ranks second all-time in free throws made (9,018) and attempted (11,864). Malone is one of just eight players who have been named NBA MVP three or more times.[33] He led the league in rebounds six times, including five straight from 1980 through 1985.[1] He was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility in 2001.[33]

Malone would often rebound his own misses. He would rush shots close to the basket knowing that he had the strength and quickness to recover the ball before his opponents.[33][71][72] Some of his peers contended that he intentionally missed shots to pad his rebounding statistics.[70][73][74][75] Malone wore down his opponents with his relentless effort and physical play.[3][70][73][76] He was not a very good passer.[76][77] When Carroll Dawson, an assistant coach with the Rockets, suggested that Malone needed to improve his passing, he replied that "they ain't paying me to pass."[27]

Awards and honors

Personal life

Malone and his wife, Alfreda, had two sons, Moses Jr. and Michael.[78] Alfreda sued for divorce in September 1991, on the grounds of irreconcilable differences, cruelty and adultery. She got a restraining order in June 1992, ordering Malone to refrain from contact with her during the course of the lawsuit. At that time, Malone denied the abuse and threats to kill his wife her lawyer had alleged.[79][80]

The divorce was granted in October 1992.[81] In January 1993, Malone was arrested driving in Galveston, Texas, across Galveston Bay from his wife's home, for having violated a peace bond Alfreda had obtained. Her affidavit for its issuance alleged that Malone had stalked her, illegally entered her home in League City, Texas, damaged her property and threatened to kill her. Malone posted bail and was released.[82]

At the time of his death, Malone was "together" with his girlfriend, Leah Nash, whom he had met in 2006, though they did not marry nor live together. They had a six-year-old son, Micah Francois Malone.[78]

Death

Malone died in his sleep at the age of 60, on the morning of September 13, 2015, at a hotel in Norfolk, Virginia. He had been scheduled to play in a charity golf tournament that day and was found in his room when he did not appear for breakfast or answer his phone. The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner for Virginia listed the cause of death as hypertensive and atherosclerotic heart disease. Malone had previously complained of an irregular heartbeat and was reported to have been wearing a heart monitor when he died.[78]
