Let’s ignore the problematic and suspect behavior of Karl Malone, if we’re looking at his contributions to the Utah Jazz, and just his on-court stuff, Malone is easily the best player in the history of the Jazz, right? Well, not according to Clutch Points. They see things a little differently.
Malone isn’t the No. 1 guy on Clutch Points’ Top 10, instead, they’re going with his running buddy, John Stockton. Stockton, the all-time leader in assists in NBA history, helped Malone get many of his 36,928 points (third all-time in NBA history).
It seems like his assists and steals records for the NBA is the deciding factor for why Stockton out-ranks Malone.
