Sure, some critics shrug at her two titles, calling them lucky, but winning championships a decade apart isn\u2019t a mere coincidence. Not to forget that in her 13 seasons as a head coach, she\u2019s had as many Finals appearances as losing seasons\u2014a record that speaks volumes about her consistency. For a Wings squad still finding its footing, someone like Brondello could be exactly what they need to turn potential into performance.<\/p>\n
The Wings\u2019 struggles are well-documented. In the last decade, they\u2019ve had just one season over .500. Even drafting Paige Bueckers first overall in 2025, who went on to set rookie records and earn Rookie of the Year, wasn\u2019t enough to secure a postseason spot. They finished the season with a league-worst 10-34 record.<\/p>\n
Enter Brondello. With a young core anchored by Bueckers, she brings the experience and stability Dallas has long lacked. Coaching turnover has been a persistent problem for the franchise, and Brondello could finally give them a steady hand. Her track record shows she knows how to define roles, maximize talent, and earn player trust\u2014whether it\u2019s seasoned veterans or rising stars. Since taking over the Mercury in 2014, she\u2019s only finished under .500 three times, and her teams have never missed the playoffs.<\/p>\n
That said, rebuilding a team like the Wings will be a new challenge for her. Brondello hasn\u2019t often been the coach tasked with a ground-up rebuild. But if anyone can balance development, strategy, and team chemistry, it\u2019s her. And for Dallas, that might just be the game-changer they\u2019ve been waiting for<\/a>.<\/p>\n But will Brondello consider Wings?<\/p>\n Sandy Brondello\u2019s got many more options to choose from!<\/p>\n The Dallas Wings likely won\u2019t be the only team looking for a coach with a championship pedigree. As the Seattle Storm parted ways with their head coach, Noelle Quinn, they, too, are in the market for a new leader. And if you look closely, landing the Storm job feels more promising.<\/p>\n Not only did the team make the playoffs, but they also boast rookie sensation Dominique Malonga and several All-Star veterans. Though that\u2019s not the only option available. With the WNBA set to welcome the Toronto Tempo and Portland Fire this upcoming season, Brondello could have opportunities there as well.<\/p>\n
