Rockets' Dwight Howard hosting blood drive to honor Craig Sager

Dwight Howard had offered Craig Sager support and well wishes and would again. But Howard wanted to do more.

To honor Sager, the longtime Turner sideline reporter who is battling acute myeloid leukemia at M.D. Anderson in Houston, and to help others, Howard and his D12 Foundation will hold a blood drive at Toyota Center from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday in conjunction with the Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center.

The Gulf Coast Marrow Donor Program also will be at the drive, giving potential donors the opportunity to register to be bone marrow donors in the Be The Match program.
