It's time for Fouhy's Small Stars! This week, we headed to Gilbert to meet up with a young star who's already drawing comparisons to some of the world's top athletes.

When it comes to sports, Amin Morgan is considered a child prodigy. At just 8 years old, he's regularly competing against kids who are 5 to 7 years older than him!

"My three favorite sports are tennis, basketball and football," he said.

He's been pulling off some amazing dribbling skills since he was just 4 years old. Names like Steph Curry and LeBron James quickly come to mind when watching his amazing skills -- and he's won plenty of medals to prove that his game is no fluke!

In baseball, he's often compared to a young Derek Jeter -- or perhaps a Paul Goldschmidt in the making.

When it comes to tennis, how about Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer? And on the golf course, he looks more like a young Jordan Spieth, or Tiger Woods.

Some of his earliest videos were posted to YouTube when he was just 3 years old -- and he continues to mesmerize his competition.

Congratulations, Amin Morgan: You're this week's Small Star!
