Players, coaches, and fans alike were happy to see Sager at Oracle Arena, including Wizards head coach Randy Wittman, who steered away from Sager's question at the quarter break to offer some words of encouragement to a man he's known for 32 years.

Warriors big man Festus Ezeli, who hasn't played since Jan. 25 due to a left knee injury, let Sager know that he's praying for him.
Sager strong.
