Rossetto started playing with São Paulo's Hebraica in 2003 at age 10. He later played with Círculo Militar until joining the Pinheiros youth system in 2005.[3] With the Pinheiros youth teams, Rossetto won a number of titles, and earned a respectable reputation.[4] He was called for the U-17 national team in 2009.[3]

In the 2014–15 season, Rossetto improved his play, and won the NBB's Most Improved Player award,[8] despite his team missing the league's playoffs. He also won the LDB title with the club's Under-22 side, in a perfect season campaign (28–0). He was named the development league's Finals MVP.[9]
