One of the NBA’s brightest young stars, Giannis Antetokounmpo, turns 22 years old today. And sources who are close to, familiar with, and have knowledge of the situation all indicated that the only thing he wanted for his birthday was for me to rewrite Taylor Swift’s 22 to be about him and then put together a mixtape set to the song. So, well, that’s what I did.

Happy Birthday, Giannis.

It feels like a perfect night to Eurostep some haters

And make fun as they fall down, uh uh, uh uh

It feels like a perfect night, for smoothies at midnight

To fall in love with Milwaukee, uh uh, uh

Yeah

He’s driving, spinning, dunking at the same time

It’s incredible and magical, oh yeah

Tonight’s the night when he rewrites the headlines

It’s time, uh uh

I don’t know about you, but Giannis is 22

Everything will be alright if, he gets some smoothies soon

Your team didn’t draft him, but I bet they wanted to

Everything will be alright if, he just keeps dunking like he’s, 22

22

It seems like one of those games

The lane is too crowded, too many defenders, uh uh, uh uh

(Who’s Giannis anyway? Ew)

It seems like one of those games

To ditch the spin move and shoot some three balls

And watch them all fall

Yeah

He’s driving, spinning, dunking at the same time

It’s incredible and magical, oh yeah

Tonight’s the night when he rewrites the headlines

It’s time, uh uh

I don’t know about you, but Giannis is 22

Everything will be alright if, he gets some smoothies soon

Your team didn’t draft him, but I bet they wanted to

Everything will be alright if, he just keeps dunking like he’s, 22

22

It feels like one of those nights

The future’s right here

It feels like one of those nights

You need to fear the deer

It feels like one of those nights

Here comes some bad news, he’s dunking on you

He’s dunking on you

I don’t know about you, but Giannis is 22

Everything will be alright if, he gets some smoothies soon

Your team didn’t draft him, but I bet they wanted to

Everything will be alright if, he just keeps dunking like he’s, 22

22

It feels like one of those nights

The future’s right here

It feels like one of those nights

You need to fear the deer

It feels like one of those nights

Here comes some bad news, he’s dunking on you
