Ibu Yamazaki brings high-efficiency shooting and wing size to Northern Colorado
In the 2025-26 season, Ibu Yamazaki emerged as a real stretch-forward threat for Northern Colorado, starting 30 of 32 games and averaging 9.9 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 36.2% from three while hitting 90.9% at the line. He stands out for his 6-foot-7 frame, perimeter touch, and reliable shot-making — the kind of wing who can space the floor without needing the ball all the time. After missing the 2023-24 season with a torn ACL, his return and production suggest a player with toughness, feel, and a useful two-way fit for teams that value versatility and shooting.
