Chicago Sky Faces Challenges After Firing Coach Teresa Weatherspoon

The abrupt dismissal of Weatherspoon has sparked emotional reactions from players and raised questions about the franchise's direction.

The Chicago Sky fired head coach Teresa Weatherspoon after a disappointing 13-27 season, missing the playoffs for the first time since 2018.
General Manager Jeff Pagliocca cited the need for change, acknowledging Weatherspoon's inexperience and its impact on attracting free agents.
Star rookie Angel Reese expressed her dismay over the firing, highlighting the strong bond she had formed with Weatherspoon during her first professional season.
Despite initial emotional reactions, the Sky's relationship with key players like Reese is reportedly stabilizing, according to Pagliocca.
The team is actively searching for a new coach, aiming to bring in someone with structure, discipline, and the ability to foster long-term success.
