NBA star Tyrese Haliburton, known for his skill on the court and a sense of humor off it, recently shared a lighthearted take on his unique birthday situation.
Born on February 29th, which occurs only during leap years, Haliburton revealed that he will be “six” on his upcoming birthday.

The question of whether he celebrates on the 28th or the 1st prompted an amusing response from the NBA standout. “Well, growing up the 28th, but I got money now, so both,” he said.
Leap years occur every four years, adding an extra day to the calendar, making February 29th a distinctive and less common birthdate.
