Parents:
Hachimura was born in Toyama Prefecture in Japan to a Japanese mother, Makiko (麻紀子) and Beninese father, Zakari Jabil.
Gonzaga’s Rui Hachimura learned English in an interesting way. Much like him, his younger brother is also a professional basketball player who plays for Tokai University in Japan. Hachimura had to learn English in addition to the typical transition of becoming a college student, and learning a new basketball system.
Game log:
Sources say that the Golden State Warriors have “strong interest” in Washington guard Bradley Beal if he decides to switch teams.
Beal has already expressed his pretty strong interest in staying Washington, but in the off chance he leaves, the Warriors would be very interested, presumably along with quite a few other teams. A lineup consisting of Stephen Curry, Bradley Beal and Klay Thompson would be pretty absurd, so we’ll jot this down as a massive early-offseason “what if”. For now, we’ll assume Beal stays in Washington as the franchise looks to build around him.
Girlfriend:
Rui Hachimura’s girlfriend is Instagram model Briana Delgado. The stunning 23-year old has her own career as a personal trainer and is already living with Hachimura.
