Dallas Mavericks forward Kristaps Porzingis just turned 25 this week and what better way to celebrate your birthday than to be in the Disney World. With the Mavs clinching a playoff spot and the NBA Bubble life slowly shaping up to be a rather interesting one, pretty sure the Latvian standout is having the time of his life right now.
And yes, they got him a Disney-themed birthday cake which is totally acceptable even if you're already midway to your twenties – especially when you're in the ‘Happiest Place on Earth'.

I hope they sliced the cake quickly 'cause Boban looks hella ready to snack on some sweets.
The 25-year old has had a few reasons to celebrate this year. After missing out on the 2018-2019 season due to an ACL injury, the all-star has slowly been settling down in his role in the Dallas frontcourt. In 54 games this season, Kristaps Porzingis has averaged 19.9 points per game, 9.5 rebounds and 2.1 blocks. He's also proven to be quite the partner for sophomore guard Luka Doncic.
Unfortunately, it was a bittersweet birthday for Porzingis as the Mavs lost another tough battle against the Phoenix Suns the day after his birthday to start 0-2 in their seeding games in Orlando. A belated birthday gift came for Porzingis a few days later when the Mavericks finally won against their first game inside the Bubble against the Sacramento Kings in OT on Tuesday.
The Mavs are looking to build on this momentum coming into Thursday's crucial match-up against the Los Angeles Clippers. It's going to be an interesting match-up for Porzingis and the Mavs since the Clippers could potentially by their first-round opponents in the upcoming playoffs.
