Rockets flashback: Legend Moses Malone sets an unbeatable record

It’s hard to be more dominant in one statistic than Moses Malone was when it came to grabbing offensive boards. Throughout his illustrious 21-year career, Malone dominated the boards on both ends, but his acumen for pulling down offensive rebounds for the Houston Rockets was historic.

Starting his basketball career in the ABA with the Utah Stars, Malone immediately set the tone for what would be a historic career on the glass by averaging 14.6 rebounds per game. Two years later, the 6-10 center was in Houston, where he would have the best years of his career.
