If you blinked you might have missed Luke Fischer’s Indiana basketball career.
But the 6-foot-11 Fischer is reuniting with some of his former IU teammates on the Assembly Ball IU alumni team in the 2025 edition of the basketball tournament.
A top-100 recruit coming out of high school in the class of 2013, Fischer left IU before the calendar hit 2014.
Seeing a limited role behind Noah Vonleh, he averaged 2.8 points and 2.1 rebounds in 13 games for IU.
Fischer was part of a highly touted recruiting class that also included Vonleh, Troy Williams, Stanford Robinson and Devin Davis.
The Wisconsin native finished his career at Marquette and averaged 10.3 points and 5.2 rebounds over his college career.
Now 30, Fischer went undrafted in 2017 and has since played overseas, most recently in Spain. He averaged 10.6 points and 5.3 rebounds while shooting 63.2% in 2024-25.
Assembly Ball is hosting The Basketball Tournament’s (TBT) regional alongside All Good Dawgs (Butler alumni) at Hinkle Fieldhouse from July 19–22.
While Indiana ties aren’t mandatory, there’s a heavy IU presence on the team, including Miller Kopp, Juwan Morgan, Yogi Ferrell, Jordan Hulls, Race Thompson, Al Durham, James Blackmon Jr. and Troy Williams. Christian Watford and A.J. Guyton are also involved.
Fischer played with Ferrell and Williams during his brief stay in Bloomington.
Assembly Ball will play Fail Harder on Saturday, July 19 at 4 p.m. ET on FS1. If they win they’ll play again on Monday, July 21, at 8 p.m.
