ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Brian Agler is the new coach of the WNBA's Dallas Wings.
The team announced the hire on Tuesday. Agler resigned as the head coach of the Los Angeles Sparks last month, saying he was ready for a new challenge.
He's the all-time winningest coach in U.S. women's professional basketball with 315 regular-season victories. He's the first coach in league history to win titles with two teams: Agler guided the Seattle Storm to the 2010 WNBA championship and Los Angeles to the 2016 title.
