NBA legend and 19-year veteran Karl Malone is stepping his game up once again by leading the fight against high blood pressure in the Black community. Known as “The Mailman” based on his success at delivering points on the court as the NBA’s second all-time leading scorer, Malone is now delivering a new package in an effort to help others.
With his new public awareness campaign, “Karl Delivers For You,” the two-time Olympic gold medalist and father of seven is using his celebrity to spread the word about heart disease, the No.1 cause of death in the U.S., especially for Black women. Earlier this year, Malone partnered with AstraZeneca to promote TOPROL-XL Direct, a program that delivers high blood pressure medicine directly to your home for only $10 a month. The partnership is near and dear to his heart considering the fact that he lost both his mother and grandmother to heart attacks.
