Born on May 11, 1990, the 35-year-old veteran uses his 197 cm, 115 kg build to dominate the paint on both ends of the floor.

His game is built on strength, rebounding tenacity, and efficient finishing around the rim. Key seasons have seen him average near a double-double, and he has been instrumental in establishing Koshigaya's defensive identity. While major team trophies have not yet come, Kamata's individual consistency has made him a cornerstone of his team's strategy. Known for his physical style and setting hard screens, he is a player opponents must account for every night. In his mid-thirties, Kamata continues to be a vital piece for the Alphas, using his experience and strength to control the defensive glass and provide crucial interior scoring.
