Makoto Hasegawa (長谷川誠, born 2 April 1971) is a Japanese basketball coach and a former player.^[6] Hasegawa was the head coach of Akita Northern Happinets.^[7] He is the first Japanese player ever to play in the American Basketball Association. Because of his trademark bushy goatee, his nickname is "hige" in Akita.^[8] He played for Kosei Club and Akita Northern Bisons as an amateur in his home prefecture.^[9]^[10]^[11] Currently he serves as an unaffiliated director of the Akita Happinets and the Japan national 3x3 team coach.

Professional career[edit]

San Diego Wildfire[edit]

In 2000 Hasegawa signed with the San Diego Wildfire, but the Japanese Jordan suffered from dirty uniforms and undelivered checks. SDW never had a single telecast or radio broadcast, a team that one night drew only 236 fans to the Sports Arena.^[12] The team's trainer, equipment manager, and cheerleaders all left and the club folded in disgrace in 2001. Former NBA players, LaSalle Thompson and Dane Suttle served as head coach.^[13]
