Here are some tweets:

President Obama Tweeted:

Quote:

The suits said it all – colorful, fun, a little outlandish. That’s what sports should be. Thanks, Craig Sager. We'll all miss you.

NBA on TNT tweeted via Steve Kerr

Quote:

Steve Kerr: "I'm glad we could honor him, but we miss him." #SagerStrong

Spurs Head Coach Gregg Popovich had this to say about Craig Sager

"He's just been such a genuine person who really does love the NBA and loves the game, and it comes through and you know that. Even though he does what he does design- and fashion- wise, you know it's part of the shtick. But his questions are always sensible, they're always answerable and he does it with fun. He does it with humor. I react to that very positively. So we have a good time together."
