When Craig Sager died in 2016, there was an outpouring of support for the NBA on TNT reporter throughout the industry. When Sager was battling leukemia, his son, Craig Jr. made an emotional guest appearance with Spurs coach Greg Popovich during one NBA on TNT telecast in 2014. And during Sager’s funeral, his daughter Kacy told a humorous story that had those in attendance in stitches.
The past year unveiled some cracks in the Sager narrative. Kacy Sager gave some details about her stepmother Stacy after criticism from someone outside the family that had no idea what they were talking about.
As we transition into 2018, Sager Jr. tweeted that he, Kacy, and their sister Krista were all left out of their father’s will.
Nothing like getting served, pestered by Sherrifs & taken to court over a Will that myself and my sisters are not only 100% excluded from but do not even have any interest in contesting in the first place. Thanks Dad ?

Sager Jr. also tweeted that he received another notice:
Never contended anything to do w/ a will when I found out bc primarily I expected it & it’s what he wanted. It is what it is. We put our heads down & moved the hell on. But 2018 & I’m called on vacation bc another Sheriff came by
I’m not in it

Kacy has tweeted in support of her brother.
I support @CraigSagerJr finally coming clean about some of the dumbassery we've been dealing with.
Family is everything, and it's incredibly painful to know others are trying to erase you from it.
Not gonna let it ruin our 2018 though 🙂
Love you guys

The point was that WE NEVER WANTED A DIME. WE NEVER WANTED TO CONTEST THE WILL. We made that clear, and she still sent sheriffs to our doors to drag us to court.
Isn't it painful to operate under this much faulty knowledge? How aren't you collapsing under the weight of it? https://t.co/YG8vyDdYqY

Sager Jr.’s ex-girlfriend also tweeted about Stacy when she learned about the will.
Once (still married) Craig met this POS, she’s all that mattered..Krista is getting married and was left nothing.Also she was roughly my age when she shacked up with married Sr.
I’m Jr’s ex so it’s not my place to comment but I hate that woman so much my head is about to explode pic.twitter.com/DgD2oDZPLB

Haha if you think that’s spunky you should see me and Kacy together on a mission. Now that’s spunky.
I’m just relieved it’s not a secret anymore. Stacy doesn’t deserve the respect TNT/NBA bestows on her. She’s a soulless home wrecker and deserves to be known for her true colors.

Stacy has two children of her own with Sager, and has been portrayed in public as a loving and loyal wife. The older Sager children apparently feel she is different than what has been portrayed.
An estate can drive a wedge through a family, and it appears that’s what has happened over the past year with the Sager family.
