K-State MBB assistant’s son dies at 15

Kansas State men’s basketball is mourning the death of a coach’s son.

K-State head coach Bruce Weber opened a Tuesday news conference by announcing the death of associate head coach Chris Lowery’s son, Kahari.

Kahari, who was 15, died early Tuesday morning. Born with cerebral palsy, Kahari dealt with complications throughout his life.

“It’s really just a tough time for all of us,” Weber said. “I’ve known him since he was born. He had lots of disabilities and never had a chance to leave his wheelchair. Chris called me early (Tuesday) morning, and he’d had a lot of setbacks and gone back and forth to Kansas City.
