Let's make this birthday one to remember.

33 years old (Born on January 29, 1992)

Happy Birthday, Markel Brown! You're the only guard I know who can jump so high they almost had to name an airline after your vertical leap. From lighting up college courts at Oklahoma State—earning not one but two trips onto the All-Big 12 second team—to joining Brooklyn and dazzling NBA fans with each shot, you've clearly set a standard as timeless as Vince Carter's dunks.

On this special day, we celebrate all those gravity-defying moments on court—and off—the ones that launched applause louder than Barclays Center during playoff season. Wishing you another year of hoops magic!
