VIDEO: Welcome back, Craig Sager
The NBA hasn't been the same without Craig Sager, who has spent the season up until this point recovering from treatment for leukemia.
Now all is right again, as Sager returned to his TNT sideline duties for Thursday's game between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Chicago Bulls. Here he is receiving a red plaid jacket from mascot Benny the Bull.
Come on now, we couldn't continue having one of the greatest NBA regular seasons in decades without Sages!
Prior to the game, Sager caught up with players and coaches alike.
