Destin Damachoua (born 17 August 1986) is a basketball player who played as a guard for the University of New Orleans. He is also a member of the Central African Republic national basketball team.

He originally committed to Duquesne University out of the Master's School in West Simsbury, Connecticut in 2006, but never played for the team.
