The Philadelphia 76ers showed their support for Philadelphia Police Officer Robert Wilson III.

Sixers players wore Officer Wilson t-shirts during their pre-game warmups before Saturday night’s matchup against the Atlanta Hawks at the Wells Fargo Center.

Wilson died Thursday after being gunned down during an attempted robbery at a North Philadelphia GameStop store. The 8-year veteran assigned to the 22nd District was in the store doing a security check and was in the process of buying a game for his son when the gunmen entered.

Police called Wilson a hero who drew away fire from store employees and continued to shoot at both suspects, even after being hit. Two brothers, 30-year-old Carlton Hipps and 26-year-old Ramone Williams, have been charged with the officer's murder.

A trust fund was set up Friday for the 30-year-old officer's two sons, a 9-year-old and a 1-year-old. The fund is being managed by the Police and Fire Federal Credit Union. Donations can be made in person at the following branches:
