Playing career
Cohen and Katash have known each other since the age of 10 when they played together in the youth team of Maccabi Tel Aviv, and later also advanced to the seniors and played in their first season for Maccabi Ramat Gan.[2]
He went on to play for Elitzur Givat Shmuel, Maccabi Ra'anana, Bnei Herzliya, Hapoel Eilat and Maccabi Jerusalem.[1]

In 2010, Cohen accepted an offer from Oded Katsh where Cohen then served as Katash's assistant at Hapoel Jerusalem.[2]
In the following years, Cohen then established himself as one of the serious professionals in Israeli basketball, working with senior coaches such as Zvika Sharaf, Effi Birnbaum, Muli Katzurin and Sharon Drucker.[2]
Inn March 2017, Dror Cohen accepted the position of Maccabi Rishon Lezion's assistant coach to Shmulik Brener. The team needed a replacement for Adir Amar, who had chosen to leave the club together with Arik Shibek who was fired.[1]
Since 2019 he has served as Guy Goodes' assistant at Maccabi Rishon.[2]
Cohen stated in early 2021: "I'm ready for the opportunity as head coach."[2]
Israeli national team
