Taisuke Ootsubo

Serving as the powerhouse center and captain for Shūtoku High, this imposing player dominates the paint with his massive, muscular frame. He specializes in securing rebounds and finishing plays with powerful dunks, possessing a physical presence capable of rivaling legends like Teppei Kiyoshi. Beyond his strength, he maintains team discipline by subtly intimidating Midorima into following the coach's strict rules, ensuring the team remains focused despite individual outbursts.
