The Golden State Warriors players and coaches pledged $75,000 toward relief efforts for those affected by the Oakland Fire, the team announced Wednesday.

Those funds were donated in addition to the $50,000 pledged by the organization earlier in the week.

"As a team that calls the Bay Area our home, we are all devastated by this tragedy that took place right in our community," Draymond Green said.

"Our thoughts and prayers are with those that have lost their lives, and our sincere condolences go out to their loved ones. We invite anyone that would like to help those who have been affected by this tragedy to join us in supporting our neighbors that have lost so much."

Thirty-six lives were lost in a fire that swept through a converted warehouse known as the Ghost Ship in Oakland, according to SF Gate.
