Let's make this birthday one to remember.

85 years old (Born on March 30, 1940)

Happy Birthday, Jerry Lucas! You always knew how to rebound—both on the court and in life. From dominating with the Cincinnati Royals to shining bright for the San Francisco Warriors, your legendary hook shots were smoother than birthday cake frosting.

And let's not forget that unforgettable 1973 NBA Championship run with the New York Knicks—you made grabbing rebounds look easier than blowing out candles! Seven All-Star appearances later, you're still an MVP in our hearts. May your day be filled with laughter, joy, and fewer fouls called against you than ever before. Keep scoring big laughs today!
