The formation of Chris DeMarco's coaching team for the Liberty is taking an exciting turn, and there’s a lot to unpack here about the recent developments you need to know!
Upon his arrival in Brooklyn this winter, newly appointed coach Chris DeMarco found himself with nearly a blank canvas. His predecessor, Sandy Brondello, had taken key members of her staff with her to Toronto, including her husband and the Liberty’s top assistant from last season, Olaf Lange, as well as Brian Lankton, who previously served as the video coordinator and player development coach.
Additionally, the Storm made the decision to appoint Sonia Raman as their new head coach, which led to assistant Zach O’Brien joining Lynne Roberts’ team in Los Angeles during the offseason.
These significant changes—including Parker Lovett’s transition to a role within the Liberty’s front office—have created a unique opportunity for DeMarco. He is now in a position to assemble a team that he believes aligns perfectly with his strategic vision for the Liberty moving forward.
But here's where it gets controversial: will these changes lead to a stronger performance on the court, or could they disrupt the team's chemistry? Fans and analysts alike are eager to see how DeMarco will navigate these shifts and whether his choices will pay off. What are your thoughts on the reshaping of the coaching staff?
