Just before the start of the 2014 NBA playoffs, beloved TNT sideline reporter Craig Sager was diagnosed with leukemia. After 11 months of treatment, he returned to work in March, before the cancer returned and he was forced to step away again. Turner has officially unveiled their plans for October 27’s opening-night telecast, and it features a welcome piece of news: Sager has been officially cleared to work again and will be on sideline duty for the Warriors-Pelicans game in Oakland.
