Selena Gomez is going from strength to strength with her recent career feats. She recently turned producer with the web series ‘Only Murders in the Building’ and is in the news for her new movie, ‘Barbie’ playing in theaters to positive reviews. The singer is bringing in her birthday with a ravishing and thoughtfully planned ‘Barbie’ party prompting a wish from the NBA world itself.

Selena Gomez is from Texas. The ‘Springbreakers’ actor has remained true to her roots by supporting the San Antonio Spurs and being very public about it whenever she can. And the Spurs didn’t miss out a chance to wish their star fan on her big day.

The Spurs are in news for bagging the number one draft of the season. The franchise’s move to bring a towering French baller on their roster has strengthened their lineup. The move was hailed by many fans of the franchise. But it’s rare for an NBA team to send out a message to their fans. But in case of their special fan, the Spurs had to make an exception.

Selena’s fandom of the Spurs is not new. Even a decade ago, she supported the team and was vocal about it on social media, cheering them through the games. She also showed her love for the team by wearing a Spurs tee to a game between the LA Lakers and the Spurs.

As a star supporter, Selena hardly misses any chance to make her support known to the team. A special wish therefore is seen as an acknowledgment of her support.
