In addition to being the head coach of the Connecticut Sun, Curt Miller will also assume the role of general manager for the team.
Last month, Chris Sienko announced that he would be stepping away from that role and expressed optimism that the Sun have the right person for the position.
“I feel very comfortable handing off the reins to Curt. I know he respects the position and understands the responsibilities that come with it. He is clearly ready to go and our athletes support this appointment as well.”
–Chris Sienko
Miller’s coaching tenure includes stints at the college ranks at Bowling Green and Indiana. With the Hoosiers, he turned a previously 6-24 team into contenders. He also previously served as an assistant coach with the Los Angeles Sparks.
When he assumed the role of head coach with the Sun, he made history by becoming the first openly gay man to be a coach of a professional team.
