Curt Miller — who was the head coach of the Los Angeles Sparks for the past two WNBA seasons — has been named general manager of the Dallas Wings. Miller was fired after two seasons in Los Angeles in which he accrued a 25-55 coaching record.

Curt Miller was expected to be a candidate for the five open head-coaching positions. Instead, he has been named Wings GM. Here's what it means.

Miller has previous experience in the role, having worked a dual coach/GM job with the Connecticut Sun beginning in September 2016.
