Kiyota Nobunaga

Kiyota Nobunaga is a talented first-year small forward who believes himself to be the next breakout star of Kanagawa. Driven by immense arrogance, he frequently boasts about his abilities and underestimates opponents like Shohoku. He maintains an insulting rivalry with Hanamichi Sakuragi, yet holds deep respect for his captain, Maki. While he lacks significant height, Kiyota uses explosive athleticism, impressive leaping ability, and skilled ball-handling to dominate the paint with frequent blocks and powerful dunks.
