The Chicago Sky is set to hire Teresa Weatherspoon as their new head coach, a league source confirmed to the Tribune on Tuesday.
The Chicago Sky are finalizing the hire of WNBA legend Teresa Weatherspoon, a league source confirmed to the Tribune on Tuesday night. The hire was first reported by The Athletic’s Shams Charania. Mutual interest between Weatherspoon and the Sky was initially reported by the Chicago Sun-Times in August. New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson talks with assistant coach Teresa Weatherspoon, left, before a game on Nov. 23, 2022, in San Antonio.
She went on to win an Olympic gold medal in the same year before setting out on a lengthy and successful career as a founding WNBA player, which included five All-Star selections and two Defensive Player of the Year honors. After retiring in 2004, Weatherspoon returned to her alma mater to lead the Lady Techsters to two NCAA tournament appearances from 2008-14, ending her run with a 99-71 record.
