Let's make this birthday one to remember.

54 years old (Born on June 14, 1971)

Happy Birthday, Bruce Bowen! You're the only guy who could guard a shadow and make it nervous. With five NBA All-Defensive First Team selections, you turned defense into an art form—so much so that San Antonio retired your #12 jersey just to give opposing players some peace of mind.

Your lockdown skills were legendary; opponents still wake up in cold sweats thinking about your relentless hustle. Here's hoping your birthday is as smooth as your corner three-pointer and filled with fewer fouls than refs accused you of committing. Cheers to another year of greatness—and remember: age can't score on defense either!
