Louis "Lou" Bullock Jr. (born May 20, 1976) is an American former professional basketball player.

Although his records have officially been vacated, due to the University of Michigan basketball scandal, his vacated records are unsurpassed for most single-season three-point field goals and career free throws in Michigan Wolverines men's basketball. In 2011, Jon Diebler surpassed his career three point total, for the Big Ten Conference record.

High school

From

McDonald's All-American (where he won the three-point contest) and was widely considered one of the nation's top 30 prospects for that year. The McDonald's All-American three-point contest that Bullock won was brought back to the media when ESPN Classic's "Cheap Seats" re-aired it in an episode depicting the contest, as well as the 2003 NHL Skills competition. He chose the University of Michigan over numerous other schools, including Florida and Maryland
.

College career

At Michigan, Bullock would rank third on the school's all-time scoring list with 2,224 points, along with 299 assists, and 137 steals, but all of his and the team's accomplishments while he played have been wiped from the records books because of the

junior season. He held the school record for career minutes played until surpassed in 2012 by Zack Novak.[2]

Professional career

Bullock was selected 42nd overall in the

NBA club the Minnesota Timberwolves, and he was then traded to the Orlando Magic for cash considerations. He was signed by the Magic for the 1999 preseason, but he was waived before the regular season began and he never played in the NBA. He has played in Europe every season since his graduation from college. He spent three seasons in the Italian League with Müller Verona (1999–01) and with Olimpia Milano (2001–02). Bullock was the leading scorer of the Italian League
, in the 2001–02 season, with a scoring average of 24.9 points per game.

He then moved to the

CB Cajasol Sevilla, where he signed a one-year contract.[3] In April 2012, he then signed with Asefa Estudiantes, until the end of the season.[4]
