New York Liberty have fired head coach Chris DeMarco after an underwhelming first season, according to a report published on November 3, 2026.
DeMarco, who took over ahead of the 2026 WNBA season, guided the Liberty to the playoffs where they faced the Minnesota Lynx in the first round.
In Game 2 of that series on September 29, 2026, the Liberty won 87-71 at Barclays Center, but the team's overall performance was deemed insufficient to retain the coach.
