Marcus Jordan, the son of NBA legend Michael Jordan, was arrested in Florida for driving under the influence. During the investigation, police reportedly found cocaine in his possession, according to The Sun.
Jordan also resisted arrest, leading to an additional charge. He is currently being held at the Orange County Jail, with bail set at $4,000.
Notably, this is not the first time Michael Jordan’s son has been involved in drug-related controversies. Just seven months ago, he was seen consuming an unknown white powder through his nose while in the south of France with friends.
Reports suggest that his partying habits were one of the reasons behind his breakup with Larsa Pippen, the ex-wife of Scottie Pippen.
"I want him to be happy. He’s a great guy, but I just don’t feel like it’s for me," she said on the Amy and TJ podcast.
Marcus, now 34, previously played for the University of Central Florida’s basketball team.
