Question: Where did the free agent signed by the Lakers before the 2001-02 season play college basketball?
Context: The 2001–02 NBA season was the Bucks' 34th season in the National Basketball Association.  During the offseason, the Bucks signed free agent Anthony Mason to shore up their front line.  After advancing to the Eastern Conference Finals last year, the Bucks got off to a solid start winning nine of their first ten games, then posted an 8-game winning streak with a division-leading record of 26–13 as of January 21.  Scoring leader Ray Allen was selected for the 2002 NBA All-Star Game.  At midseason, the team signed free agent Greg Anthony, who was released by the Chicago Bulls.  However, with a 35–25 record as of March 6, the Bucks would struggle and proceed to lose 16 of their final 22 games and miss the playoffs, finishing fifth in the Central Division with a 41–41 record, thanks to an embarrassing 123–89 road loss to the Detroit Pistons to close out the season.  This was one of the biggest late-season collapses for a team that was contending for a Division title in March.  Following the season, Glenn Robinson was traded to the Atlanta Hawks, and Anthony retired. The 2000–01 NBA season was the Lakers' 53rd season in the National Basketball Association, and 41st in the city of Los Angeles.  During the offseason, the Lakers acquired Horace Grant from the Seattle SuperSonics.  Grant won three championships with the Chicago Bulls in the early 1990s.  The team also signed free agent Isaiah Rider, who was released by the Atlanta Hawks the previous season due to off the court troubles.  The Lakers won their final eight games finishing the regular season with a 56–26 record, and won the Pacific Division over the rival Sacramento Kings by one game.  Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal were both selected for the 2001 NBA All-Star Game, but O'Neal did not play due to an injury.  The Lakers clinched the #2 seed in the playoffs. The 2001–02 NBA season was the Lakers' 54th season in the National Basketball Association, and 42nd in the city of Los Angeles.  During the offseason, the Lakers signed All-Star guard Mitch Richmond and free agent Samaki Walker, while acquiring Lindsey Hunter from the Milwaukee Bucks.  The team got off to a fast start winning 16 of their first 17 games, and finished second in the Pacific Division with a 58–24 record.  Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal were both selected for the 2002 NBA All-Star Game in which Bryant won MVP honors, but O'Neal did not participate in the All-Star game due to an injury. The 2001–02 NBA season was the Jazz's 28th season in the National Basketball Association, and 23rd season in Salt Lake City, Utah.  During the offseason, the Jazz signed free agent John Amaechi.  John Stockton continued to set new standards with 15,000 career assists and 3,000 career steals, as Karl Malone scored his 34,000th career point.  However, the Jazz began to show their age as they played mediocre basketball all season finishing fourth in the Midwest Division with a 44–38 record.  The Jazz also beat the Los Angeles Lakers' record of sixteen consecutive winning seasons, set between 1976–77 and 1991–92.  Malone was selected for the 2002 NBA All-Star Game, but did not play due to an injury.  Rookie Andre Kirilenko was selected to the All-Rookie First Team.  In the first round of the playoffs, they lost in four games to the Sacramento Kings. The 1998–99 NBA season was the Lakers' 51st season in the National Basketball Association, and 39th in the city of Los Angeles.  It was the Lakers' final season at the Great Western Forum.  During the offseason, the Lakers signed free agent Derek Harper.  In his first season as a starter, Kobe Bryant finished second on the team in scoring with 19.9 points per game.  At midseason, Eddie Jones and Elden Campbell were both traded to the Charlotte Hornets for All-Star forward Glen Rice, J.R. Reid and B.J. Armstrong, who was released and signed with the Orlando Magic.  The Lakers move continued midway through the season, signing free agent and rebounding specialist Dennis Rodman, who was well known for winning championships with the Detroit Pistons and the Chicago Bulls.  However, after 23 games, Rodman was released by the team. The 2010–11 Princeton Tigers men's basketball team represented Princeton University in intercollegiate college basketball during the 2010–11 NCAA Division I men's basketball season.  The head coach was Sydney Johnson, who was in his fourth season.  The team's tri-captains were senior Kareem Maddox, senior Dan Mavraides, and junior Patrick Saunders.  The team played its home games in the Jadwin Gymnasium on the University campus in Princeton, New Jersey.  The team competes in the Ivy League athletic conference.  The team was coming off of a 22–9 2009–10 season in which it achieved the most wins by a Tigers men's basketball team since the 1998–99 team and its first back-to-back finishes of at least second place in the Ivy since 2001–02 season.  The team was also following on the heels of its first postseason appearance since the 2003–04 team went to the 2004 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament, and its first postseason victory since the 1998–99 team won two games in the 1999 National Invitation Tournament. The 2001–02 NBA season was the 13th season for the Orlando Magic in the National Basketball Association.  During the offseason, the Magic signed free agent All-Star center Patrick Ewing to their roster, while re-signing Horace Grant to further strengthen the team's depth.  Early into the season, they traded Bo Outlaw to the Phoenix Suns for Jud Buechler.  Tracy McGrady continued to emerge as a superstar as he finished fourth in the NBA in scoring with 25.6 points per game, and was selected for the 2002 NBA All-Star Game.  However, McGrady would not have much help as Grant Hill's comeback was ended after just 14 games, as he had to get more surgery on his bad ankle.  Despite Hill's injury, the Magic made it to the playoffs with a record of 44–38, third in the Atlantic Division.  In the first round of the playoffs, they lost in four games to the Charlotte Hornets.  Following the season, Ewing and Buechler both retired, Troy Hudson signed as a free agent with the Minnesota Timberwolves, and Monty Williams signed with the Philadelphia 76ers. The 2001–02 Michigan Wolverines men's basketball team represented the University of Michigan in intercollegiate college basketball during the 2001–02 season.  The team played its home games in the Crisler Arena in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and was a member of the Big Ten Conference.  Under the direction of head coach Tommy Amaker, the team finished tied for eighth in the Big Ten Conference.  The team earned a tenth seed and advanced to the quarterfinals of the 2002 Big Ten Conference Men's Basketball Tournament.  The team failed to earn an invitation to either the 2002 National Invitation Tournament or the 2002 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament.  The team was unranked for all eighteen weeks of Associated Press Top Twenty-Five Poll, and it also ended the season unranked in the final USA Today/CNN Poll.
