Marcus Jordan, the son of basketball icon Michael Jordan, was recently arrested in Florida on various charges. The Maitland Police Department took Marcus into custody and booked him into the Orange County Jail. The charges against him include possession of cocaine, resisting arrest, and DUI property damage or personal injury.
Specific details surrounding the circumstances of his arrest remain unclear at this time. Marcus, who is 34 years old, is the second-eldest child of the legendary NBA player, known for his time with the Chicago Bulls and Washington Wizards.
Marcus Jordan has a background in basketball, having played the sport in high school and briefly at the University of Central Florida. However, he left the college basketball program in 2012 and went on to earn a bachelor's degree from The Rosen College of Hospitality Management in 2013.
While Marcus has mostly kept a low profile, he gained public attention a couple of years ago when he entered a relationship with Larsa Pippen, the former wife of Scottie Pippen, a former teammate of his father. The relationship lasted for approximately two years before the couple parted ways in 2024.
This recent arrest is not Marcus Jordan's first encounter with the law. In 2012, he pleaded no contest to charges of disorderly conduct and resisting arrest following an incident in Omaha, Nebraska. Additionally, he faced a charge of obstructing a police officer, which was ultimately dropped as part of a plea agreement.
