Luchetti suffered a brutal preseason injury prior to the start of the last season. Austin, who also competes with Wisconsin Playmakers , has looked more athletic as more time has passed in his injury recovery. Luchetti was all over the floor in his team’s convincing victory over Mukwonago on Friday afternoon. Austin has great footwork, explosive athleticism, and is extremely strong allowing him to score out of the post and the perimeter. Luchetti spent several minutes guarding talented Evan Ploeckelman Evan Ploeckelman 6'7" | SF Mukwonago | 2027 WI and limiting him most of the game offensively. There were several d1s, d2s, and d3s viewing this matchup between Monona Grove and Mukwonago, as Luchetti picked up an offer from UWGB on Friday following his performance. Luchetti is without a doubt a player that can make a difference at the next level.

Luchetti continues to work his way back from an injury that kept him out of the entire 2025-26 high school season. He played in the spring on the club circuit for the Wisconsin Playmakers P32 squad and has picked up steam with his play thus far this June with Monona Grove. A bouncy wing who can get to the basket and finish above the rim or spot up and drill three-point jump shots, Luchetti owns some NCAA Division II offers — Lake Superior State and Northern Michigan — and is hoping to get some looks from Division I programs in July.

Luchetti is a workhorse forward who lives for doing the grunge work for his squad. He has a strong base and has no issue throwing his weight around on the interior to get to pay dirt. He scored the basketball often and showed that he could be a threat from the dunker spot. He is nimble on his feet and can guard different positions. Luchetti’s has a nice arsenal of post moves he uses regularly when he is down low. Luchetti has a nose for rebounds and collected an ample amount in the games I evaluated him. He has soft hands which allow him to catch passes with ease. I want to see Luchetti become more of a threat from behind the arc I think if he becomes more confident from there he is a no brainer at the low major level.

Austin played a key role in helping lead Davis Brothers Elite to the 16u title. Defensively he was a brick wall on the block, not giving up an inch to his man in the post. Austin had the strength to take contact right to the chest and remain straight up to either block/contest shots around the basket while avoiding fouling. On the offensive end he was scoring with baby hooks over size, and was also crashing the glass hard for putback buckets. Austin has an intriguing blend of size, strength, and explosiveness that makes him so tough to stop at the 16u level.

Luchetti anchored the Davis Brothers Elite inside, playing a key role in their championship push. The sturdy forward dominated the low and mid-post, combining touch with deceptive bounce. He finished explosively with both hands and added balance to the offense by opening up inside-out play. His presence in the paint created matchup problems throughout the day.
