For the past two seasons, Amber Stocks has served as the head coach and general manager of the Chicago Sky. Today the franchise released her from both positions.

“The entire organization would like to thank Amber for the hard work and dedication that she has given to the Chicago Sky for the past two seasons,” said Sky President and CEO Adam Fox. “At this time, we felt a change was necessary for the 2019 season. We wish her nothing but the best in the future. Our search for a new coach will begin immediately.”

In her first season with the Sky, Stocks led the team to an overall record of 12-22. This past season Chicago finished 13-21 and was selected to pick fourth in the 2019 draft.
