    According to MN's Star Tribune, it was lupus.

    My deepest sympathies and heartfelt prayers go out to Kevin McHale and his family on the passing of daugher Sasha on Saturday.

    McHale, the longtime Wolves executive and head coach, has been on leave from his job as Houston's coach to be with Sasha as she battled the auto-immune disease lupus.

    Please remember Kevin and his family in your thoughts and prayers.

    Early reports are that Sasha McHale did indeed die last night. How awful. :(

    I wonder what that ClutchFans poster who told us earlier in the thread that Rudy T didn't really have cancer and that this was all some make-believe excuse for Kevin McHale to step down as coach has to say for himself.

    My deepest sympathies for the family and friends of Sasha, and I pray they will experience the all-sufficient grace that a loving heavenly Father has for them.

    Unbelievably sad. He can take the rest of the season and anything else he needs, as far as I am concerned. Basketball is stupidly trivial compared to these emotions.

    RIP Saha, as per coaching, my take is that he should rush to coaching...the best way too heal is to immerse into job and something creative and avoid thinking too much

    Whoa, my condolences to the McHale family. Chin up coach!

    My friend's hubby was recently diagnosed with lupus. I had no idea what this was, I heard it has no cure :(

    This is tragic.

    Lupus is a terrible disease.

    Soooo sad:(. My prayers and thoughts are with coach McHale. I'm sure basketball is the furthest thing from his mind and it should be.
