Stephen Curry helped raise $21,025 for the family of Oakland stabbing victim Nia Wilson, through his SC30 Showcase Game on Tuesday. Wilson’s family was in attendance for the event held at Kezar Pavilion in San Francisco, in which Curry coached a team of high school players.
Wilson was stabbed to death at a BART stop in Oakland on July 22. Her sister Letifah was also stabbed but did not face life threatening injuries. Authorities have charged John Cowell with murder and attempted murder.
Curry encouraged fans to donate to Wilson’s family during the event.
“This is what’s keeping me and my family so strong,” Wilson’s father Ansar El Muhammad said, per NBC Bay Area. “All the support from giants like Stephen Curry and abroad, that’s what’s keeping us strong at the moment.”
