It's been less than a month since Craig Sager returned to the sidelines during a Chicago Bulls home game against the Oklahoma City Thunder on March 5. His suit was a bit muted, and after losing a handful of weight Sager looked a lot thinner, but he was back from his fight with leukemia, interviewing NBA players and coaches like he was meant to do.
Today, the Sager family released a statement announcing some depressing news: Craig's leukemia has returned.

This is obviously horrible news, as it looked like Sager was settling back in to the job he's excelled at for decades. We'll keep Sager in our thoughts as he battles leukemia once again.
