Announcer Craig Sager returns from leukemia to NBA sideline

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich — who has had several memorable sideline interviews with Sager — and Minnesota Timberwolves star Kevin Garnett were among those reaching out in support. Sager, a 34-year Turner veteran who said he had never missed a day of work before his ordeal, had hoped to return for last fall's baseball playoffs but had a bout of pneumonia.
