Little League Star Mo'ne Davis Wows at Celebrity All Star Game

Basketball's best athletes came together in New York for the NBA’s annual All Star basketball game. But it's a different highlight making the rounds on social media this week.

It was 13-year-old Mo'ne Davis who stole the show. During the celebrity portion of the All Star game, Davis got to the hoop with an impressive spin move she put on actor and comedian Kevin Hart.

Davis gained more fans after that, adding to her athletic accomplishments. She is already the first female to throw a shut out in the Little League World Series, throwing a fastball of 70 miles per hour.
