Utah Jazz shooting guard Donovan Mitchell went above and beyond for a young girl who wanted to take a photo with him Friday, gifting her a pair of signed shoes.

According to a GoFundMe page, Maya is 10 years old and was recently diagnosed with a rare form of malignant yolk sac germ cell cancer.

Mitchell made headlines for another kind gesture last week after he paid for a stranger's phone repair at an Apple store.
