Report: New York Liberty ‘Expected’ to Hire Former Phoenix Mercury Coach

The Liberty are reportedly “expected” to hire a familiar WNBA name, former Mercury coach Sandy Brondello, according to ESPN's Ramona Shelburne.

The coach of the Australian National team mutually parted ways with Phoenix earlier this month after leading the franchise to the league finals this past season, losing to the Sky in four games. Brondello spent eight seasons with the Mercury, leading the franchise to eight playoff appearances and a WNBA title in 2014.

Meanwhile, New York has been on the hunt for its next head coach after parting ways with coach Walt Hopkins after two seasons earlier this month.
