Dwayne Killings

Dwayne Killings (born April 4, 1981) is an American basketball player and current coach. He is currently an assistant at Marquette University.

Killings was a walk-on player for the UMass men's basketball team from 1999 to 2001, before transferring to Hampton University for his final two years of college.[1]

Killings began coaching right after graduating from college, joining the staff of the NBA's Charlotte Bobcats as an assistant. In 2006, he became the assistant director of basketball operators at Temple University. Following three years at Temple, Killings started working in the NBA D-League monitoring player development and progress. He began his first job as an assistant coach for college basketball in 2010 at Boston University, where he helped lead the team to a conference championship and an NCAA tournament appearance. In 2011, Killings returned to Temple, this time as an assistant coach helping to lead the team to two regular season conference titles and three NCAA tournament bids. In 2016, the University of Connecticut announced that Killings would be joining the basketball staff as an assistant coach.[2][3][1][4] However, after two years on the staff, Killings was let go by Connecticut after the firing of head coach Kevin Ollie in March 2018. A few weeks later, on April 12, it was announced that Killings was hired as an assistant for the Marquette Golden Eagles men's basketball team.[5]
