Though the Knicks eventually decided on Mike Brown as their next head coach, Staley, who felt she did “pretty well” in her interview, said she would’ve accepted the position.

“If the Knicks would’ve offered me the job, I would have had to do it,” Staley told Candace Parker and Aliyah Boston on an episode of the “Post Moves” podcast Wednesday. “Not just for me. It’s for women. Just to break open that (door).
