Bell was a seventh-round draft pick and two-year starter at Northwestern State, the same Louisiana school that produced cornerback Terrence McGee.

Bell is the son of Malone, but the Mailman had no role in Bell?s success except passing along athletic genes.

The two have had very little contact during Bell?s life. His mother, Gloria Bell, reportedly was only 13 years old and Malone a college sophomore at Louisiana Tech when Demetrius was born. Malone might have served jail time had her family asked the district attorney to file criminal charges.

Bell didn?t even know Malone was his father until after graduating from high school. When they finally met, Malone told the 18-year-old Bell it was too late to be his father, and that Bell would have to ?earn his money on his own.?

Not that illegitimate babies are anything new in the NBA, but Malone has always had this goody two shoes image about him, and for this to happen to someone as big as him (literally + figuratively) makes this quite interesting..

He pulled the same sh!t with his other kids, and only agreed to meet cheryl ford after her repeated attempts to get in touch, sending pictures that looked exactly like him (something like that.) He's a typical sh!thead deadbeat father who doesn't take responsibility for his actions imo.

Hmmm... I never would have pegged Karl Malone as a deadbeat-- he always had a somewhat squeeky clean image.

I never saw that on ESPN's highlight reels, though.

All I ever saw was the magic of the ebony and ivory playing together in perfect harmony on the basketball court.

Seriously? I thought his general reputation was that of a scumbag. I'm not surprised at all by this.

I wonder if the mother can still sue for back child support. This is one instance where I'd love to see the father taken to the cleaners.

He can't carry the Trojans of these guys.

THE HEAVYWEIGHTS
Shawn Kemp - 7 illegitimate kids by 6 women. Gives his nickname of the Reign Man new meaning.
Evander Holyfield - 9 illegitimate kids. "Heck I'm not even mad, I'm impressed!"
Ex-San Antonio Spur Willie Anderson - 9 illegitimate kids. If only his field goal percentage had been as high as his impregnation rate.
Derrick Thomas - 7 illegitimate kids by 5 women. He died at 33. Let's just leave it at that.
Ray Charles - Not an athlete, but still had 9 illegitimate kids and 12 total, which is quite impressive. Being blind must have made it tough to get that condom on.
UPDATE: Don't know how we missed this - thanks to a reader for pointing this out to us - Calvin Murphy reportedly had 14 illegitimate kids by 9 women. Wow.

THE MIDDLEWEIGHTS
Larry Johnson - 5 kids by 4 women. 3 are illegitimate.
Santonio Holmes - 3 illegitimate kids by two women, before leaving college.
Former Celtic Greg Minor - 3 illegitimate kids.
Ricky Williams - 3 illegitimate kids. Maybe that's why he smokes so much weed.
Priest Holmes - 3 illegitimate kids. You best keep running Priest.

THE LIGHTNING FAST GROUP
Willis McGahee - 3 illegitimate kids in 2 years in Buffalo. Not a lot to do in Buffalo, except make babies. Lots and lots of babies

He always seemed like a dirtbag to me. I guess my suspicions are confirmed. Though there was little doubt after he appeared on WCW wrestling with Diamond Dallas Page.

You honestly think he knew she was 13? College basketball players collect poon by the wheelbarrow full while in college. Prolly met her at a party and figured game on.

Too many 13yr olds looking 19 these days, and perhaps it was this way in 1988.

Karl Malone is anything but clean, when he played here in L.A. for the Lakers for one year, he reportedly made sexual advances toward Kobe's wife Vanessa.

Malone and Roger Clemens should hang out :)

he was a very dirty player - so was Stockton - not that they weren't good, but they specialized in cheap-shots too.

Isn't this very similar, other than the age of the mother, to Larry Bird's daughter?

Also - you can't leave Travis Henry, RB and drunk-tard, off the list of athletes with lots of kids.

HOF mention for Juwann Howard - after signing the richest contract in NBA history at the time, he reportedly offered a woman $60 dollars a month to support a child of his she was raising....yes, you read that right - $60 dollars a month.
