Malone attended Louisiana Tech University in Ruston, Louisiana — the same program that produced women's basketball legend Karl Malone, in a different era — developing the post game, the mid-range jump shot, and the pick-and-roll chemistry that would define his partnership with John Stockton in Utah.
