Career highlights and awards

DeAndre Lamount Haynes (born March 30, 1984) is a former American basketball player and current assistant coach at the University of Toledo.

Haynes, a 6'2" point guard from Detroit, Michigan, came to Kent State from Southwestern High School in Detroit. Playing for the Golden Flashes from 2002 to 2006, Haynes scored 1,259 points and left as the school's all-time leader in assists (625) and steals (229). In his senior season of 2005–06, Haynes averaged 13 points per game and was named Mid-American Conference Player of the Year and an honorable mention All-American by the Associated Press. He led the Golden Flashes to regular-season and MAC championships that season.[1]

After graduation, Haynes was not selected in the 2006 NBA draft. He instead signed in Belgium and played for the next six seasons in Belgium, Hungary, Germany and Finland.

Haynes retired from basketball in 2012 and became an assistant coach at Kent State under head coach Rob Senderoff.[2] Following the 2015–16 season, he moved to a similar role at fellow MAC program Toledo.[3]
