Let's make this birthday one to remember.

53 years old (Born on September 05, 1971)

Happy Birthday, Jeff Goodman! Another year older and still breaking basketball news faster than a freshman point guard on a fast break. Since joining ESPN in June 2013, you've covered every level of hoops with unmatched insight—proving that your insider game is as timeless as Coach K's hairline.

From courtside scoops to locker room laughs, your dedication has made you the MVP of basketball journalism. May this birthday bring fewer deadlines and more buzzer-beater celebrations—because let's face it: you're aging better than most bracket predictions! Here's to another season filled with slam-dunk stories and plenty of cake-induced rebounds.
