Reon Dane King (born 6 October 1975) is a former West Indian cricketer. King played 19 Test matches and 50 One Day Internationals for the West Indies. He also appeared for Guyana, Northerns and Durham in his cricketing career.^[1]

Tall, athletic and with a slinky runup similar to Michael Holding's, he was arguably the Windies fastest bowler at the end of the 1990s.^[1]

He was born in Goed Fortuin, but grew up in Newtown Kitty. He attended St Joseph's High School where he was encouraged to join the GCC. King made his Under-19 debut for Guyana in the 1993 Northern Telecom Regional Youth Championship.^[2]

In 2007 he began coaching cricket.^[3]

He manages Genesis Fitness Gym, which is owned by his wife.^[2]

He enjoyed a successful home season in 1999–2000, taking his first Test five-for against Zimbabwe in Jamaica. Two months later, after setting up a tight win over Pakistan, he and Franklyn Rose seemed almost ready to succeed Curtly Ambrose and Courtney Walsh. But both fell away during the 2000 tour of England, where King was said to be troubled by a heel injury. An introverted character and a genuine No. 10, King was a forgotten man for four years, until he was recalled for the home series against South Africa in 2004–05, when a raft of leading players were sidelined by a contract dispute.^[2][4]

King was a strong performer in ODIs, rising to fourth in the ICC Rankings in 2000 and finishing with 76 wickets at 23.77. His remains the fourth lowest ODI bowling average by a West Indian after Joel Garner (18.84), Colin Croft (20.35) and Michael Holding (21.36).^[1][5]
