Mychal Covington brings old-school point-guard juice to Oakland
Mychal Covington is best known as a former Oakland point guard and current assistant whose game was built on playmaking: in the 2001-02 season, he averaged 7.1 assists per game, ranked eighth nationally, and finished his Oakland career with 514 assists. That profile screams floor general—steady, team-first, and wired to make teammates better rather than chase empty numbers. For a program looking for a coach who understands guard development, pace, and organizing an offense, Covington’s track record makes him a sharp fit.
