The conversation began on Patrick Beverley’s podcast, where the former Bulls guard appeared unaware of the allegations involving Karl Malone. According to multiple reports, Malone allegedly impregnated a 13-year-old during his collegiate days. Beverly was shocked upon learning about the controversy.
