Let's make this birthday one to remember.

69 years old (Born on April 15, 1956)

Happy Birthday, Michael Cooper! From your legendary lockdown defense and five NBA championships with the Lakers to coaching victories that inspired countless players, you've always been a champion on and off the court. Your iconic high socks and relentless hustle still make us smile—though we're pretty sure opponents didn't find it quite as amusing!

Whether shutting down rival stars or guiding teams from the sidelines, you've consistently shown class, humor, and heart. May your birthday be filled with laughter brighter than Showtime's spotlight—and may you celebrate like it's Game 7 all over again. Cheers to another winning year ahead!
