Player Info

Shuhei Muto is a hard-working power forward for the Fukushima Fire Bonds, recognized for his energy, rebounding, and improving offensive game. At 33 years old, the 192 cm, 95 kg forward wearing number 32 has become a key figure in Fukushima's frontcourt rotation. Muto's path saw him develop in the B.League's lower divisions before earning a consistent role with the Fire Bonds, where his hustle plays and defensive effort have made him a fan favorite. He has a knack for being in the right place for put-back dunks and often draws offensive fouls with his intelligent positioning. A breakout performance came during the 2022-23 season when he recorded a double-double in points and rebounds in five consecutive games. While still building his trophy case, he was named the Fire Bonds' Most Improved Player in 2023. Off the court, Muto is actively involved in community outreach following the Fukushima region's recovery efforts. His style is defined by a non-stop motor, physicality in the post, and a reliable mid-range jumper, making him an essential glue guy for his team.
