The New York Liberty are looking for a new head coach after dismissing Chris DeMarco on Tuesday, marking a swift end to his one-year tenure. This situation leaves the team in a similar position to last year when they were searching for a replacement for Sandy Brondello.

General Manager Jonathan Kolb is leading the search, and the team is reportedly prioritizing candidates with significant experience in women's basketball. This emphasis aims to avoid a repeat of the previous season's outcome and steer the Liberty toward their championship aspirations. The team's need for a proven leader comes as they aim to contend at the highest level in the league.
