He took care of the third string's training and lent the gymnasium's key to Tetsuya Kuroko. Matsuoka later advised him to quit the basketball club, as even if he worked hard enough, the basketball had so much players that it'll be impossible for him to play in the first string.

Soon after that, a person informed Matsuoka of Kuroko's decision to stay and asked if they should do something. Matsuoka interrupted him, saying it was too late and to leave him be.[2]

Matsuoka later heard that Kuroko was promoted to the first string. After a training session, Matsuoka called Kuroko to announce his promotion. He congratulated him, saying that his hard work was rewarded.[3]
