Happy birthday to the legendary Orlando Woolridge—the master of gravity-defying dunks and aerial entertainment! When you soared onto NBA courts, defenders ducked for cover, fans leaped from their seats, and rims probably wanted hazard pay. Your energetic play with teams like the Bulls and Lakers made basketball look less like sport and more like an epic video game highlight reel.Even after all these years, your dazzling dunk highlights still gleefully haunt YouTube algorithms everywhere. Today we toast a player who once proved convincingly that humans could fly—thanks for keeping us both amazed (and slightly intimidated). May your hops remain eternal!
