Justin Bieber showed off his athletic prowess by winning the rapper's annual basketball game by two points.
The 17-year-old pop star captained Team Bieber while the rapper led Team Luda at the annual LudaDay Celebrity Basketball Game in Atlanta, Georgia.
Bieber proved he was a force to be reckoned with on the courts.  He raised $10,000 for charity by winning with a final score of 134, to Ludacris' 132.
The singer took to his Twitter page after emerging victorious, writing, "We made a lot of money for charity today at the game. Thanks to everyone who supported and to Ludacris for living as an example to others.
"Felt great winning today. Felt even better knowing we did it for charity. Thanks to all the fans who came out to support."
