Karl Malone is an American retired professional basketball player.
Malone played the power forward position and spent his first 18 seasons (1985-2003) in the National Basketball Association (NBA) with the Utah Jazz and formed a formidable duo with his teammate John Stockton. Malone also played one season for the Los Angeles Lakers. He was a two-time NBA Most Valuable Player, a 14-time NBA All-Star, and an 11-time member of the All-NBA first team. His 36,928 career points scored rank third all-time in NBA history behind LeBron James and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and he holds the records for most free throws attempted and made, in addition to being tied for the second-most first-team All-NBA selections with Kobe Bryant and behind LeBron James. He is considered one of the greatest power forwards in NBA history.
The Utah Jazz drafted Malone in 1985 with the 13th overall pick in the first round. Malone appeared in the playoffs every season in his career, including the NBA Finals in 1997 and 1998 with the Jazz. He played his final season with the Los Angeles Lakers, with whom he played his third Finals in 2004. Malone also competed with the United States national team in the Summer Olympic Games of 1992 and 1996; in both years he won gold medals.
After retiring from the NBA, Malone joined the staff of the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs basketball team in 2007 and was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2010 twice - for his individual career, and as a member of the 1992 United States men's Olympic basketball team.- Ed "Chief Wahoo" McDaniel will always be recognized as one of the most influential Native American wrestlers of all time. McDaniel was originally a football player. While playing football for the Oklahoma Sooners (in college), he kicked a 91-yard punt, the 6th longest punt in NCAA history. McDaniel was drafted by the Houston Oilers (who are now the Tennessee Titans) and played there in 1960. After lasting only one season with the Oilers, he went on to play with the Denver Broncos from 1961 to 1963, the New York Jets from 1964 to 1965, and the Miami Dolphins from 1966 to 1968. McDaniel started his career in pro wrestling while still in football. He would wrestle in the off-seasons, and play football during football season. After retiring from football in 1968, his wrestling career became full-time. Wahoo was a top draw wherever he went, wrestling for the Capitol Wrestling Corporation (the company that would evolve into World Wrestling Entertainment), Georgia Championship Wrestling, Southwest Sports (Fritz Von Erich's World Class Championship Wrestling), the Minnesota Boxing & Wrestling Club (Verne Gagne's American Wrestling Association), Joe Blanchard's Southwest Championship Wrestling, Paul Boesch's Houston Wrestling, and the Japanese group known as International Wrestling Enterprises (which is where he won his first and only World heavyweight championship). He spent the most amount of time, however, wrestling for Jim Crockett Promotions out of Charlotte, N.C. (a member of the worldwide sanctioning body known as the National Wrestling Alliance), where he held the company's 'NWA' U.S. title five times (which ties him for the record with Ric Flair). McDaniel also held the company's 'NWA' World tag team championship four times with three different partners (Rufus R. Jones, Paul Jones, and Mark Youngblood) and was a four time Mid-Atlantic heavyweight champion. In addition he was the last holder of the 'NWA' National title (which came over from Championship Wrestling from Georgia, Inc. after Crockett got the coveted time slot on Ted Turner's TBS). McDaniel also competed over the years for Eddie Graham's Championship Wrestling for Florida (an NWA member), where he held the 'NWA' Southern heavyweight title (the top title in the promotion)...he won the belt the last time beating "Superstar" Billy Graham in a tournament before dropping it a month later to then-rookie sensation Lex Luger. McDaniel's last stint in a national promotion was the faltering AWA, which was seen on ESPN by that point. McDaniel, also the company's booker (head writer) left the promotion after an injury storyline in which the Destruction Crew, who were at the time the AWA World tag team champions and the top team in the promotion, detached his retina. McDaniel, after a brief stint with Ted Turner's World Championship Wrestling, kept competing in the Carolinas and made his last national TV wrestling appearance at the WCW Slamboree 1995 pay-per-view, where he was inducted into the WCW Hall Of Fame along with "Big" John Studd (John Minton, Sr.), Angelo Poffo, Dusty Rhodes (Virgil Runnells, Jr.), and "The Dean Of Wrestling" Gordon Solie. McDaniel's health started to deteriorate in the mid 1990s, and he eventually lost both kidneys. He was awaiting a kidney transplant when he died from complications from diabetes and renal failure. He was 63.
- Woolridge starred for Notre Dame where he played for four seasons under Coach Digger Phelps, who said that Woolridge's cousin Willis Reed, a Hall of Fame center for the Knicks, had recommended him. He helped the Fighting Irish reach the NCAA Tournament in each of his four collegiate seasons, including the Final Four as a freshman in 1978. One of his defining moments came during his senior year at Notre Dame when he hit a jump shot at the buzzer to beat No. 1-ranked Virginia on national television, ending the Cavaliers' 28-game winning streak. His professional career began in 1981 when he was drafted in the first round, sixth overall by the Chicago Bulls. Known for his high-flying dunks and ability to throw down lob passes, Woolridge played 13 seasons in the NBA for the Bulls, Lakers, Nets, 76ers, Nuggets, Bucks, Pistons and spent his final two seasons playing in Italy. During the 1987-88 season, he was with the New Jersey Nets when he told the NBA he had a cocaine problem. He was suspended for violating the league's substance-abuse policy, and he was signed by the Lakers after completing a drug rehabilitation program in Van Nuys. He retired in 1996 and coached the Los Angeles Sparks of the Women's National Basketball Association in the late 1990s and was the first former N.B.A. player to coach in that league and was named the Sparks' interim head coach in 1998, led them to a 20-12 record in 1999 with the interim label removed. It was the team's best mark in its three-year history, but he was fired at the season's end for what management called philosophical differences.
