But what you didn’t know about the guy who sits 3rd on NBA’s all-time scoring list is that he was a man of many habits. NBA Players have vices, and Karl Malone had professions.

He wanted to be a bodybuilder, cop, hunting guide, pilot, and long-haul trucker. The latter is something he achieved and the focus of our story.

Yes, NBA legend Karl Malone was indeed a truck driver. “he loves trucking” says an associate at a Louisiana Timberland property he owns.

Imagine getting a delivery and the guy giving you the shipment given to you by an NBA legend. Karl’s love for trucking is great.
