F ormer Liberty assistant coach Sonia Raman is set to become the next head coach of the Seattle Storm, ESPN's Shams Charania reported Friday.

Robin Roberts is investing in the New York Liberty. The WNBA team won the 2024 WNBA Championship, defeating the Minnesota Lynx.

Her historic hiring, first reported by ESPN’s Shams Charania, makes her the first Indian-American woman to be a head coach in the WNBA.

Kolb likened this moment in franchise history to a "fork in the road." Heading into 2025, New York saw value in continuity, so they stuck with Brondello. After the season, the organization saw the opportunity to follow a league-wide trend of change.

New York Liberty assistant Sonia Raman has agreed to a multiyear deal to become the new head coach of the Seattle Storm.

The New York Liberty will not renew head coach Sandy Brondello’s contract just one year after she led the team to its first WNBA championship.

Now that the Storm, Wings, Fire and Tempo have made their decisions, one opening remains: the New York Liberty.

Sonia Raman reportedly agreed to a multi-year deal with the Storm and will become the first Indian American woman to be named a WNBA head coach.

While New York disappointed with a first-round exit this past season, it is just one year removed from winning the title during the 2024 campaign. It also reached the WNBA Finals in 2023 under Brondello. In all, she went 107-53 during four seasons as the Liberty head coach.

Julia Koch and her family acquired a 10% minority stake in the New York Giants, valuing the NFL franchise at $10.3B after league approval.
