I have this done in my basement. I welded up a couple triangular
brackets and bolted them into the studs. The sink sits right on top of
the brackets. Think of them as shelving brackets and the sink the
shelf. I then wrapped a piece of aluminum strap around the sink and
screwed that into the studs to keep the sink against the wall. The
strap is coated with white so it does not look bad. It has been there
for about 8 years now and believe me it gets used and support the
weight of a 10 year old boy who has been caught standing in it to reach
the shelves above.

They make wall hung molded laundry tubs with no need for legs.

An example is

They aren't very expensive and use the same drain and supply fittings.
And they don't fall off the wall.
