Over $90,000 has been raised through sales of the T-shirt and other fundraisers. Proceeds will go to Seaman and a student who was critically injured in the shooting.

I’m so confident in my @cavs, if the @warriors win the 2018 NBA finals, I’ll buy anyone who retweets this a signed @StephenCurry30 gameworn jersey. Even you @RandallTime. @KingJames https://t.co/zsQp3LxGbu
