No matter what transpires on the court in Sunday's NBA All-Star game, nothing will match Craig Sager's television return as the feel-good story of the night.
The flamboyant sideline reporter, who has been sidelined while battling leukemia, joined TNT's pre-game broadcast remotely from Orlando.
"I went from receiving my last rites in the hospital to soaking up the fountain of youth in Florida," the 63-year-old said.
Sager also said that he could return to the sidelines around March 1, but the highlights of the segment were Sager roasting the New York Knicks while interviewing Carmelo Anthony, revealing the unorthodox bottom half of his outfit, and revealing that Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra has been sending him Hooters care packages.
