Let's make this birthday one to remember.

78 years old (Born on April 16, 1947)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Kareem Abdul-Jabbar! With an NBA record of 38,387 points—more buckets than a fried chicken restaurant—you've set standards higher than your iconic skyhook. Your scoring prowess has left defenders dizzy and statisticians exhausted.

From dominating courts with six championships and earning MVP honors six times, you've soared above competition like nobody else. Even decades later, players still chase your records while fans reminisce about those unstoppable moves.

Here's wishing you another year filled with joy—and may life continue giving you assists as perfect as Magic Johnson's passes. Keep reaching new heights; after all, you're already used to being at the top!
