New York Liberty Seek New Head Coach After Chris DeMarco Firing

The New York Liberty have parted ways with head coach Chris DeMarco following the team's participation in the 2026 WNBA Playoffs. DeMarco, who guided the Liberty through the postseason, was relieved of his duties as the franchise begins a search for his successor.

The decision comes after New York's playoff run ended in the second round against the Atlanta Dream. The organization is now reportedly considering three candidates for the vacant position, though no names have been officially disclosed.

The Liberty front office is expected to move quickly to fill the role ahead of the 2027 season.
