Summary
Yasuharu Yasuda is a second-year student at Shohoku who wears jersey number 6 and plays as the team's Point Guard. Standing at 165 cm, he typically appears quiet, shy, or nervous. However, he possesses a brave spirit and is willing to place himself in dangerous situations to defend his teammates, a trait he demonstrated when fighting against Mitsui and Tetsuo to prevent the basketball team from being banned. His calm demeanor allows him to control the tempo of the match, often slowing down the pace to stabilize his side. This ability was crucial during the game against Toyotama, where he replaced Sakuragi after the team had become flustered and started making poor decisions due to Toyotama's aggressive playing style. Yasuda successfully shifted the momentum of the game in Shohoku's favor through his composed leadership.
