Marsh began his coaching journey in the NBA G League, serving as an assistant and player development coach for teams like the Rio Grande Valley Vipers, Iowa Energy, Bakersfield Jam, and Fort Wayne Mad Ants. He joined the Toronto Raptors as a player development coach and was part of their 2019 NBA Championship team. Marsh later moved to the Indiana Pacers before transitioning to the WNBA with the Aces.
In November 2024, Marsh was officially named the head coach of the Chicago Sky, replacing Teresa Weatherspoon. His hire marked a strategic move by the Sky to rebuild around young stars like Angel Reese and Kamilla Cardoso, leveraging Marsh’s championship experience and player development focus.
However, Marsh’s first WNBA season has had its challenges. The Sky struggled offensively and defensively, with early-season losses and criticism from fans. His coaching debut was marred by a particularly poor shooting game—one of the worst since 2018. A midseason low point involved Marsh being ejected after vehemently protesting a call during a loss—after which player Angel Reese helped restrain him.
Marsh is widely respected for his strong player development skills and ability to cultivate team culture. He has emphasized the importance of building trust, accountability, and empowering players particularly Reese and Cardoso as the Sky’s cornerstones. Despite early setbacks, his long-term strategy remains grounded in patience and relationship-building.
