Craig Sager’s son tweets his father will begin treatment for acute Leukemia
The NBA playoffs will get underway this weekend. As usual, TNT will be front and center as it will be carrying three series in the first round.
Unfortunately, it appears one of the network’s more well known personalities will not be present.
Craig Sager’s son tweeted on Thursday that his father, who was thought to be Leukemia free, will begin treatment for the cancer on Friday and that it will likely last 3-4 weeks.

Btw we were told he was leukemia free on Tuesday and then they apologized and hit us with the gut check yesterday.
