The Houston Rockets held their media day on Monday the team was lucky enough to have their event attended by none other than Craig Sager.
The TNT sideline reporter and owner of the best suits in the world is currently battling against his Leukemia that resurfaced earlier this year, so it’s great to see that Sager was able to make it to the Rockets’ media day decked out in an amazingly colorful patterned jacket.

According to Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle, Sager was in Houston to receive cancer treatments. Encouragingly, it appears that Sager plans to work on the NBA’s opening night.
Great catching up for a minute with Craig Sager. Had chemo this morning at M.D. Anderson; at media day hours later. Will work opening night.
