The story of Karl Malone impregnating a 13 year old resurfaces online after All Star weekend in Utah.
“I’m not discussing any of that backlash. I don’t care. That’s my life, that’s my personal life, and I’ll deal with that like I’ve had to deal with everything. So, whatever.” – Karl Malone on the backlash he has received after impregnating a 13-year-old girl at the age of 20.
With all of this being out in the open, fans were simply stunned that the league would invite Malone in the first place. The NBA has not made a single comment about Malone’s past, and it is highly unlike that they will. Needless to say, this is a bit of a PR disaster for the league. Moreover, it is leading to increased coverage of Malone’s alleged past misdeeds. For instance, Rolling Stone recently did a deep dive into Malone and his alleged actions.
Load management has been the talk of the town recently when it comes to the NBA, with everyone having something to say about it. Stars seem to be sitting out of games more than ever before, and it is a cause for concern for the league.
We have had Kyrie Irving come out and say the term ‘load management’ has dehumanized NBA players, while on the flip side, Anthony Edwards ripped his fellow NBA stars for sitting out so often.
Above, you can see one of the wilder alleged stories about Malone. This story reportedly took place in 2004 and involved Vanessa Bryant. At the time, Malone was on the Lakers and he came to the Staples Center in a cowboy hat. Subsequently, Bryant found the outfit amusing so she asked what he was hunting for. Knowing her Mexican heritage, Malone then replied, “I’m hunting for little Mexican girls.” This comment immediately made Bryant feel uncomfortable, although nothing really came of it. As we explained, this is an alleged story, although it is still very concerning, nonetheless.
Fans in Utah did not seem to care about the allegations surrounding Malone. In the Twitter clip down below, you can see that Malone was welcomed back with open arms. Moreover, he got to sit next to his old teammate John Stockton, who has become a conspiracy theorist in retirement. Needless to say, the city of Salt Lake was not sending its best over the weekend. Stay tuned to HNHH for more news from around the sports world.
Even though he had a stellar basketball career, his personal life wasn’t the same way. Malone was just 17 when he impregnated a woman and had twins. When he was 20 and in college, Malone impregnated a 13-year-old girl. Recently, he was speaking to the media during the All-Star Weekend and refused to talk about his past.
In this day and age, cancel culture is a common thing, and people’s actions impact their careers. However, the case wasn’t the same back in the 1980s and 90s. Despite all he’d done, Malone made his way to the NBA and had a spectacular career.
This year’s All-Star was in Salt Lake City, Utah, and they brought back their legend, Karl Malone. He was appointed the judge for the AT&T Slam Dunk Contest. The NBA’s announcement of appointing him as a Dunk Contest judge was met with concerns over the league embracing a statutory r*pist and noted absentee father.
After that, he was also present for the Legends Lounge on Friday. There, he was asked about turning 60 soon and discussing his actions and the attention he’s getting for them.
“Whatever. I’m human.”
