Ibu Yamazaki is a 6-foot-7 wing from Matsudo, Japan who joined Northern Colorado for 2025-26 after two seasons at Radford. A graduate of Meisei High School — the same program that produced NBA player Rui Hachimura — Yamazaki hit the game-winning shot in the 2020-21 Winter Cup finals to give Meisei its sixth championship. He represented Japan's U19 national team at the 2021 FIBA U19 World Cup, averaging 14.6 points and 4.0 rebounds per game and scoring 32 points against South Korea. After playing his freshman and sophomore seasons at Radford in the Big South, he transferred to Northern Colorado, where head coach Steve Smiley cited him as a proven winner with high-level shooting and international experience. He was UNC's first spring signing in the 2025 recruiting cycle.
