11 Great Moments in the Colorful History of Craig Sager and His Technicolor Suits

Craig Sager.

He is an iconic and ubiquitous presence during the NBA Playoffs every year.

This guy seemingly has it all: the looks, the brains, the crisp and confident voice. We hear and see him every time we watch playoff basketball on TNT as he reports on the sidelines.

And boy do we ever see him, courtesy of his cadre of colorful suits. I mean heck, if you ask me, this guy deserves to be in these commercials and on the cover of GQ at least once, no?

Well, this article is solely dedicated to the man and all the smooth and stylish apparrel he rocks on national televison.  Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the 10 Greatest Moments in the Colorful History of Craig Sager’s Suits.

[Editor's note: This post was originally published on May 19th. In the meantime, yet another colorful Craig Sager moment occurred that demands inclusion in any post purporting to countdown colorful Craig Sager moments; and it involves another rather colorful character: Ron Artest. Quennsbridge in the building!

So I've added an 11th moment, knowing that Devon won't mind too much.]
