Renowned for his defensive prowess and 3-point shooting, Robert Covington is an American professional basketball player who currently plays for the Philadelphia 76ers. Despite going undrafted in 2013, Covington has had a successful NBA career.

Rober Covington’s journey began in the NBA G League where he showcased his skills with the Rio Grande Valley Vipers. In 2014, he made his mark with the Philadelphia 76ers, gradually establishing himself as a 3-and-D player. On the offensive end, Covington poses a constant threat from beyond the 3-point line, capable of catching and shooting with precision from anywhere on the court. On defense, Covington's on-ball lockdown defense made him a force, capable of guarding players across all positions—a "Swiss army knife" on defense.

Covington's proficiency in the 3-and-D role garnered widespread recognition across the league. In a standout performance during the 2015-16 NBA season, he secured six-plus steals in three consecutive games—a feat unmatched since 1986. Additionally, he showcased his sharpshooting abilities with seven games of six or more 3-pointers, further solidifying his reputation as a premier 3-and-D player.

In 2018, Covington became part of the trade package that sent him to the Minnesota Timberwolves as part of the Jimmy Butler trade. Despite the move, Covington continued to excel as a 3-and-D specialist wing player.

Throughout his NBA career, Robert Covington has epitomized the essence of a 3-and-D player, combining defensive tenacity with sharpshooting prowess to make a lasting impact on the game.
