Muneryu Taira graduated from the Ryukyu Golden Kings Basketball Academy and joined the Kings U15 as a second-generation student of the Ryukyu Golden Kings Youth Program. I entered the U18 and continued my practice activities.
After entering Kaishi Kokusai High School, even though he was in the first year of high school, he was used in the game and won the second place at the Inter-High School. made me tremble. It is no exaggeration to say that not only his shooting ability but also his outstanding breakthrough ability are among the best in his generation.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved in Kaishi Kokusai High School for their understanding and cooperation in joining as a special designated player this time.

Also, I would like to thank the Ryukyu Golden Kings, Kaishi International High School, everyone who has been involved so far, and my family who have supported me the most. I’m going to spend the day of the day with the feeling of the day. Thanking you in advance.
