Minnesota Timberwolves head coach Tom Thibodeau honored the late Craig Sager by wearing a tribute pin of the TNT sideline reporter interviewing one of his favorite characters in San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich.

The pin features a very casual Popovich with an open-collared blue shirt looking at Sager closely with an arm wrapped around his back, while Sager is in a colorful patterned red suit with a salmon pink shirt — one of his most notorious tonal combinations.

The pin is as iconic now as the moment it represented — two friends coming together for a 20-second lapse where they can enjoy each other while doing their respective jobs.
