Steph Curry, Chris Paul, John Wall start Hurricane Florence fundraiser

Three NBA stars who grew up in North Carolina -- Golden State's Stephen Curry, Houston's Chris Paul and Washington's John Wall -- have teamed to support Hurricane Florence reliefs effort with a fundraising website.

Paul, a native of Winston-Salem who attended Wake Forest, donated $25,000 to get the donations started, and the league's players association also gave $25,000.

Curry, who grew up in Charlotte, North Carolina, tweeted details about the fundraising effort.

Please join myself, @CP3 and @JohnWall supporting our home state of North Carolina and the surrounding area in #HurricaneFlorence recovery efforts!
