How can you teleport behind a player?

Question

I'm trying to make an item for an "assassin" class, where when you hold it, you teleport behind the nearest player. I have found another question, but it only applies to armor stands and doesn't apply to players. So how can you get it to teleport behind the nearest player, preferably looking towards that @p player.

Try this:
execute as @e[type=player,sort=nearest] run tp @p ^ ^ ^-1

Important: use ^, not ~ to teleport, so you teleport one block behind the nearest players facing direction. Unfortuenetly I don't know how to look towards that @p player. nevertheless, I hope  the command will help you : )

The other answer is almost correct. Try this:
execute
  as @p[distance=0.1..]
  at @s
run tp @p ^ ^ ^-1 facing entity @s

This command is to be run by the assassin.
