Uekusa maintains a low profile on the court but plays a crucial role in Ryonan's gameplay, especially when Koshino is not on the court. Although not considered a strong player, he can hold his own effectively during games. Even Sendoh acknowledges Uekusa for his high stamina. However, in the game against Shohoku, Uekusa was completely outplayed and exhausted by Miyagi.
