Craig Sager was an influence on his family, NBA coaches, players, fans, and the entire sports world. He was a sideline reporter for Turner Sports for many years. Sager passed away at the age of 65 after losing his battle with acute myeloid leukemia. 

ESPN presented Sager with the Jimmy V Perseverance Award at the ESPY's back in the summer of 2016. If you want to watch his speech here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GX1nOKrZSNE 

He has inspired people in so many different ways. Sager will always be known for his positive attitude every night he went to work, and his very colorful suits he wore. 

Everyone will miss what he has done. It would be an honor if someone dressed his style for a day. #SagerStrong.
