Wow
After living her life with a rare genetic condition, Ashlyn Horry, the daughter of former Lakers forward Robert Horry, died Tuesday at age 17.
Ashlyn was born on April 2, 1994 with severe respiratory issues and eventually was diagnosed with the 1p36 Deletion Syndrome, caused by the missing part of chromosome No. 1.
"I want to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers," Horry told The Times' Broderick Turner. "It means so much to our family."
Horry, who won three of his seven NBA championships with the Lakers, cemented his legacy as "Big Shot Rob" thanks to his various clutch playoff performances. That included finishing second all-time for three-pointers made in the postseason (237), first in the NBA Finals (53) and consecutive three-pointers made in a playoff game (seven). But as stated in the Ashlyn Horry Foundation website, "In the game of life, Ashlyn Horry is the true champion of the Horry family." The Times' Tim Brown penned a story during the 2002 NBA playoffs detailing how Robert and Keva Horry spent time with Ashlyn during physical therapy in hopes that she could eventually speak, walk and eat.
"Everybody who knows her, they love Ashlyn like she's their child," Robert Horry told Brown at the time. "When people come over, they're like, 'Where's my baby? Where's Ashlyn?' They get on the floor with her and hug and kiss on her as much as she can stand."

Thoughts and prayers to the Horry family.
karma for shoving Nash into the scorers table
If you ever saw her face she was monstrous looking. Like really deformed.
She's not the only one with a missing chromosome.
Nash looks a lot worse compared to Horry's daughter.
Horry's daughter could have guarded Parker better that year.
That's a beautiful and touching message of condolence.
You should probably be invited to the funeral to speak.
Youre hilarious. Quickly climbing through the SpursTalk ranks.
You're on your way to legendary status of trollism.
At least no one is bragging about killing her, yet.
The stuff legends are made of. Top 3 Poster in SpursTalk history, easily.
lol the butthurt comments.
If it was Jason Terry's daughter, there'd be a Spursfan gtg.
lol being like the one person who fell for the obvious troll bait
If Trig Palin had jungle fever, they woulda been a swell couple
Nothing like trolling SpursTalk at the expense of a dead 17 yr old. Youre a true legend.
tbh I wasn't making fun of her. Just stating something. She had like a really weird facial deformity.
FkLA seems real mad.
Man, my heart and prayers go out to Big shot rob and his fam ...
Dude had the best line after a big shot when Valde called him "lucky" ... "he better go read a paper or something "....
That is horrible. My thoughts go out to Big Shot Rob and his family.
Damn. That sucks.
These s clownin' a dead daughter just to try and get laughs and acceptance from people they don't even know. Parents are proud! Something you can tell your autistic children when they grow up...
Nah not mad bro. Just in awe and alittle envious of yalls trolling talents.
RIP, Horry must be passing through very difficult moments.
Condolences to the Horry family.
