Ashlyn Horry, the 17-year-old daughter of former NBA player Robert Horry, died today from “severe respiratory issues and a host of other complications requiring a six month stay in Texas Childrens Hospital’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit,” according to a report posted on Black Sports Online.

Ashlyn underwent numerous tests and multiple surgeries, according to the report, and nearly died on several other occasions. She was diagnosed with a chromosome abnormality so rare it did not even have name.

Robert Horry played for 15 seasons in the NBA on four different teams -- he Rockets, Suns, Lakers and Spurs. He was on seven championship teams -- two in Houston, three in L.A. and two in San Antonio


Really sorry to hear this. Horry was nothing but a class act off the court and nothing but an all around good guy.

So sad for the Horry family. No one wants to bury their kids.

I felt really bad when I reread that LATimes story. I know why he came to SA, personal family reasons but I didn't realize how bad it was until recently.
