Patrick Lucas "Luke" Hancock (born January 30, 1990) is an American former professional basketball player and current financial adviser. He played in six games for Panionios of the Greek Basket League before tearing a muscle in his calf, ending his career. He played college basketball for the University of Louisville after transferring from George Mason University. While at Louisville, he won the 2013 NCAA championship and was named the Final Four Most Outstanding Player, becoming the first substitute to ever win the award.
Hancock was born to William and Venicia Hancock, and he has four brothers and one sister. Hancock attended Hidden Valley High School in Roanoke, Virginia, where he did not receive notice from college programs. He then went to Hargrave Military Academy for one year. As a high school basketball player, he was named All-State.
Hancock was recruited to attend George Mason University by George Mason Patriots men's basketball coach Jim Larrañaga. He played for George Mason in his freshman and sophomore years. While at George Mason, he averaged 7.7 points per game as a freshman and 10.9 points as a sophomore. In his second season, he was named to the All-Colonial Athletic Association third team.
