Part of 'THE ORIGINAL SIX' pack. The Original Six were the players Nike chose to launch the now iconic Air Force 1.
Moses Eugene Malone was as big as the game itself. He became the first player in NBA history to earn five consecutive rebounding titles after the 1984-1985 season, when he averaged 13 rebounds per game and he didn't foul out during his final 1,212 games - the longest streak of games played without a disqualification. At High School Malone helped his team to 50 wins in a row, and a number of state championships. He was the NBA's Most Valuable Player in 1979, 1982 and 1983 scored 27,409 points and has played more seasons (21) in the NBA/ABA than any other player!
