Scouting Report

Assets Savvy veteran with a complete post game and an excellent 15-footer. Punishing rebounder and defender who knows what he can get away with. Extremely durable.
Flaws Isn't the power player he once was. Doesn't run the court the way he did in the 20th century. Can't keep up with the best power forwards the game has to offer -- though he comes awfully close.
Career potential Malone could end up scoring more points than anyone else in league history. 'Nuff said.
