## Bio

Born in Toyama Prefecture on February 8, 1998, Hachimura dominated Japanese high school ball, leading Meisei to three consecutive All-Japan Tournament titles while starring for the under-17 and under-19 national teams. He arrived at Gonzaga in 2016 as the fifth Japanese-born man to play Division I, then in 2017 became the first Japanese national to suit up in the NCAA tournament. By his sophomore year he'd earned first-team All-WCC honors and a Naismith Player of the Year finalist nod. The Washington Wizards drafted him ninth overall in 2019 - a historic first-round selection - and he made the All-Rookie Second Team in 2020. He now plays for the Los Angeles Clippers, still repping Japan on the international stage.
