Mizumachi was born in Imari[2] city in Saga Prefecture, Japan and started playing basketball while in elementary school.[3] After graduating from Gakushuin University in 2004 he decided to enter professional basketball, against his parents' wishes.[3] He joined a team below Niigata Albirex BB's organization. In 2005 he was drafted by the Oita Heat Devils in the seventh round (26th overall) of the 2005 bj league draft. During three seasons with Oita he was named as a deputy captain, but was released at the end of the 2007-08 season. He was then signed by Niigata and spent two seasons with their bj league team.

In June 2010 Mizumachi was signed by the Happinets in the second round of the 2010 expansion draft and has served as captain throughout the club's seven seasons in the bj league.[4] He was one of 12 players to participate in all eleven seasons of the bj league.[3] He has remained with Akita following the team's entry into the B.League in September 2016, but has been replaced as captain by Shigehiro Taguchi.[5] His nickname is "Macho".[6]

His retirement ceremony was held at the Akita Prefectural Gymnasium on April 3, 2019.[6]

Mizumachi with Niigata
gollark: Unless it's fun.
gollark: It should be. But I would caution against doing anything which requires that.
gollark: There is a setting for it.
gollark: What is "your environment"?
gollark: But, er, probably don't. Turn on debug, if you *must* find the chunk name.
