Luke Harper

Over the past six years, I have trained more than 50 basketball players, including Division III, Division I, and professional athletes. Many have gone on to play college basketball and earn scholarship opportunities.

I specialize in developing point guards and shooting guards, with a focus on skill development, basketball IQ, decision-making, and game application.

My background includes four years of collegiate basketball, professional experience with Avanti Mondorf in Luxembourg, and coaching experience as a Head Assistant Coach at Lorena High School (4A), where I focused on player development and helped develop multiple First-Team All-District players and consecutive district Offensive MVPs.

My training is designed to translate directly into game performance by building confidence, habits, and consistency. Each session is tailored to the athlete’s needs, whether improving fundamentals or preparing for the next level.

I began my college career at John Brown University, where I was a 1x All-American, 4x All-Conference player, Offensive Player of the Year, and a top-10 scorer in program history. I also led the conference in three-point makes on two occasions.

For my graduate year, I transferred to East Central University, earning All-Conference honors while finishing second in the league in assists and posting the best assist-to-turnover ratio in the conference.

After college, I began my professional career in France before moving to Luxembourg to play for Avanti Mondorf. There, I led the team to its highest finish in program history while leading the team in both scoring and assists.

1. Train It – Every session begins with skill development focused on areas like ball handling, shooting, passing, footwork, and finishing. Through purposeful repetition, athletes build confidence, improve technique, and strengthen the fundamentals.

2. Apply It – Once the skill is developed, we put it into game-like situations. Athletes practice what they've learned in realistic scenarios, helping them build confidence and transfer their skills to real competition.

3. Understand It – Throughout every session, I teach the *why* behind each drill and decision. By understanding the game, athletes improve their basketball IQ, recognize situations before they happen, and make smarter plays with confidence.
