The Houston Rockets media day got #SagerStrong thanks to the adored broadcaster.
Craig Sager has been receiving treatment for leukemia in Houston since the cancer returned in March, but that didn't keep him from adding some color to the Toyota Center on Monday. He shared a moment with James Harden, outfitted in a typical Sager-style sweater.

According to reporters, Harden and Sager were bargaining: The Rockets star asked for the broadcaster's sweater; Sager said he wanted Harden's beard and gave it a little tug.
After his session, James Harden gave Craig Sager a hug. Great to see Sages here. Harden, "That's my man."
