Brooklyn Liberty seek new coach after Chris DeMarco’s lone season
A 26–18 season and a semifinal appearance precede another change on the sideline.
Chris DeMarco will not return to lead the New York Liberty after his first season in charge. The departure leaves the team looking for its third head coach in three years.
New York finished the regular season with 26 wins and 18 losses. A first-round sweep of top-seeded Minnesota gave way to a three-game semifinal exit against Atlanta.
The next hire follows another recent transition: Sandy Brondello did not return after the 2025 season. For the franchise that plays at Barclays Center, the coaching search again becomes a central offseason decision.
