Unlike other legends of his generation, such as Charles Barkley or Isiah Thomas, Karl Malone has been discreet since his retirement. But with the approach of a big event in which he wishes to participate, the Mailman came out of the shadows, and the fans were shocked by his physical appearance. He is getting older, much more than a Michael Jordan for example…
On a purely basketball level, Karl Malone should be celebrated like all the legends of his generation and scour TV sets to bring his expertise. Charles Barkley does it brilliantly, for example, on TNT, Isiah Thomas too, and Reggie Miller is a renowned commentator across the Atlantic. But since his retirement, the Mailman has instead decided to withdraw from the public sphere, and for fairly obvious reasons…
Indeed, no one has forgotten his adventure with a young 12-year-old girl when he was at university, and to avoid hearing about it all day long, he decided to be discreet. But exceptionally, for the All-Star Game which will take place at his home in Utah, the third leading scorer of all time could make a surprise appearance.
Karl Malone unrecognizable before his media return!

Karl Malone plans to come out of anonymity next month for the All-Star Game
Karl Malone, who usually stays very far from the public sphere, intends to make a remarkable appearance in Salt Lake City for the All-Star Game. A journalist was able to meet him, take a photo to accompany this announcement, and Internet users were shocked by his appearance. While he still has monstrous arms, he’s undeniably aged in the face, perhaps more than any other legend of his generation.
Man he’s old ????

Guys, Malone has really aged compared to Charles Barkley, Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson
Jesus he looks awful.

My god he looks like nothing.
Karl Malone approaching sixty and it shows physically. Because he only shows up very rarely in the media and on social networks, fans are bound to be struck by his evolution. They will be able to confirm their impression during All-Star Weekend.
