VIDEO: Curry tells Sager he's an inspiration to Warriors

NBA on TNT/Twitter

Following the Golden State Warriors' win over the Washington Wizards on Tuesday, Stephen Curry was asked by sideline reporter Craig Sager - who worked his first game since revealing his leukemia was no longer in remission - whether he and his teammates could use some rest while fighting to break the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls' record of 72 victories in a season.

"Seeing you and doing what you're doing, we got no excuses," Curry told Sager. "You're an inspiration for us to keep doing what we're doing, keep fighting, and that's the mentality we have. It's contagious, so thank you."
