Let's make this birthday one to remember.

38 years old (Born on July 04, 1986)

Happy Birthday, Omer Asik! From dominating the paint with the Chicago Bulls in 2010 to making headlines with your impressive $25 million deal with the Houston Rockets in 2012, you've always been a towering presence—literally and figuratively. Your rebounds were as reliable as gravity itself, and your defense made opponents reconsider their career choices.

Here's hoping your birthday is filled with fewer fouls than usual and more cake than rebounds (though that's quite a tall order!). May you continue to block negativity like you blocked shots on court. Cheers to another year of slam-dunking life's challenges—happy birthday, big guy!
