A fan is honoring a legendary NBA sideline reporter's legacy in NBA 2K17. The fan has created a loving tribute to the late Craig Sager by recreating the iconic SagerStrong t-shirts within the video game.

According to Complex magazine, the NBA will never be the same without Craig Sager and his flashy suits and ebullient personality gracing the sidelines of a basketball court. The NBA community mourned the loss of the legendary sports broadcaster who passed away on Thursday after he fought leukemia for the past two and a half years.

To most people, he was well known and beloved for the colorful suits he wore at work at NBA games, interviewing superstars and coaches live on television. To his family he was a loving father and husband. To his friends and people he has worked with, both past and present, he was fun, hard working, loved life, lived life to the fullest, and was always a positive individual.

Even his colleagues in competing networks saw him as a tireless worker, generous, always friendly, and a respected member of their industry. The people he interviewed always saw him as a humble and easily approachable person that they were comfortable talking to, even if he was asking tough or annoying questions. In the end, everyone saw him as a courageous fighter with a tremendous will.

The joy he brought to others was celebrated before a game covered by his network crew. CBS Sports reported that the coach of the Golden State Warriors and Sager's former co-worker, Steve Kerr, instead of asking for a moment of silence, asked for a moment of joy, where upon the stadium erupted with applause.

One fan offered his own tribute to Craig Sager through a video game. YouTuber and gamer Da InFaMous NY created custom uniforms within NBA 2K17 in the style of SagerStrong t-shirts.

The fan's designs resemble the SagerStrong shirts that the SagerStrong Foundation is selling to raise funds for cancer research and education. Across the shirt's back is a quote of Sager from his speech at the ESPY Awards the previous year. The uniforms include special pairs of shorts which match perfectly with the shirts.

Da InFaMous NY has uploaded to YouTube a tutorial of how to create the uniforms. According to news website Uproxx, he has also made a download available for players to experience his tribute.

USA Today repoted that the YouTuber also created a custom SagerStrong court logo for the center of the basketball court. With tributes like these, Craig Sager can live on in the hearts and minds of all basketball and sports fans around the world.
