EXCLUSIVE
Craig Sager‘s legacy just got the ultimate big up from a huge L.A. street artist … being immortalized on some Tinseltown bricks right next to fellow Jimmy V award winner Stuart Scott.
The artist’s name is Jonas Nevers … who’s done art of other sports figures like Vin Scully, Kobe Bryant, and Magic Johnson … but made headlines for his Stuart Scott piece last year.
We’re told the Sager art — painted on the brick wall of Melody Bar & Grill — was finished just moments ago … and the decision to put him next to Scott was made to honor two iconic voices that cancer took too soon.
Pure awesome … R.I.P. Craig Sager.
