Three-time NBA MVP Moses Malone dies at age 60

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Three-time NBA MVP and Pro Basketball Hall of Famer Moses Malone died Sunday at the age of 60.

Malone, named one of the NBA's 50 greatest players, was the Finals MVP in 1983, as he led the Philadelphia 76ers to the title.

"It is with a deep sense of sadness that the Sixers family mourns the sudden loss of Moses Malone. It is difficult to express what his contributions to this organization -- both as a friend and player -- have meant to us, the city of Philadelphia and his faithful fans," the 76ers said in a statement Sunday.

Good night, sweet prince.

One of the first guys if not the first to skip college and go straight to the pros. He was a hell of a player. That's a bummer. Only 60 years old.
