Teresa Weatherspoon Joins New 3-on-3 League After Chicago Sky Firing

The former WNBA coach shifts focus to player development with Unrivaled Basketball following her unexpected dismissal.

Teresa Weatherspoon was fired by the Chicago Sky in September after a 13-27 season, a decision she described as unexpected and abrupt.
Weatherspoon will now coach the Vinyl Basketball Club in Unrivaled, a new 3-on-3 basketball league launching in January 2025 to provide offseason development and income opportunities for players.
The Sky cited poor results, locker room issues, and concerns over free-agent recruitment as factors in the decision to part ways with Weatherspoon after just one season.
Unrivaled executives praised Weatherspoon’s basketball expertise and energy, emphasizing her value to the league's mission of supporting player growth.
While Weatherspoon expressed enthusiasm for her new role, she remains noncommittal about a potential return to the WNBA or other coaching opportunities in the future.
