Let's make this birthday one to remember.

40 years old (Born on November 29, 1985)

Happy Birthday, Shannon Brown! Hope your day jumps higher than your legendary vertical leap—though that's setting the bar pretty high. Your gravity-defying dunks and electrifying plays have left fans speechless (and opponents dizzy) for years. May this birthday bring you as much excitement as that unforgettable block against Mario West or those jaw-dropping alley-oops with Kobe Bryant.

Here's to another year of soaring above expectations both on and off the court. Keep reaching new heights, Shannon—we know you'll always rise up to meet any challenge life throws at you. Enjoy your special day; you've certainly earned it!
