There has been a change in Marcus Jordan’s DUI case.
The 34-year-old son of basketball legend Michael Jordan has seen his cocaine possession charges altered.
During the time of his arrest on February 4 in Florida, it was believed that the white powdery substance on him was cocaine. Police did a field test on the powder which tested positive for cocaine.
But now it has been established by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement that the drug was actually ketmaine, according to a report from TMZ.
The mix up reportedly happens now and then as the two drugs have the same color and texture. It is not sure how this will change his sentencing as both cocaine and ketamine are illegal drugs.
This comes just as his ex-girlfriend Larsa Pippen posed in a mini dress for a Sєxy video before hitting the town. The former couple started dating in 2022 and made headlines for both their 17-year age gap and because of their Chicago Bulls connection. They split in March 2024.

Jordan was taken into custody after his Lamborghini SUV became stuck on a train track in Florida during the early hours, reportedly due to impairment.
Court documents revealed that Jordan’s legal team entered a not guilty plea on his behalf, per People.
His attorneys requested a jury trial and waived his first court appearance, with a pretrial conference for the DUI charge scheduled for March 20.
In addition to the DUI charge, Jordan pleaded not guilty to a felony charge of cocaine possession and a misdemeanor charge of resisting an officer without violence.
His attorneys have requested a jury trial for these charges as well, though no court date has yet been set for those proceedings.
The news follows the reality star finally breaking his silence after the arrest.
The star even name dropped his father when an officer was forced to order him out of the car alongside a young woman in the pᴀssenger seat days ago.
Marcus took to his X (formally Twitter account) to make his first statement since his run-in with the law.
He wrote: ‘I appreciate everyone reaching out. I’m focusing on @TrophyRoomStore right now and won’t be making any comments on recent media stories and my personal life.
‘I sincerely appreciate your concerns & thank you for your kind understanding [trophy, trademark, and sparkle emojis]’
He also shared two images from inside his store including an art piece of the back of his father’s iconic Chicago Bulls jersey.
Marcus’ Trophy Room store is a men’s fashion store in Orlando, Florida focusing on his dad’s Jordan Brand sneakers. He founded it in 2016.
This comes a day after a bodycam revealed that Marcus had begged officers to help him get his $300,000 Lamborghini off a railroad track after speeding away from a traffic stop and crashing the luxury sports vehicle while drunk and carrying cocaine in his pocket.
Marcus was previously in a relationship with reality star Pippen, 50, who is Jordan’s teammate Scottie Pippen’s ex-wife

Extraordinary body worn footage from one of the officers who arrived on the scene shows the Italian sports car completely stuck on the tracks, teetering on the edge of a steep drop.
‘Let me pull over,’ Jordan says to the baffled cop.
‘You can’t. You’re buried,’ the officer responds, as the female pᴀssenger suggests that Jordan ‘at least move it to the right.’
Jordan was eventually arrested and charged with DUI and cocaine possession after confessing to officers he’d spent the night at several establishments – including Rachel’s Gentleman’s Club.
But before he was charged, Jordan pleaded with officers to help him get his car to safety when he learned it was directly in the path of an oncoming train scheduled to pᴀss by in under 10 minutes.
The duo were warned to get out of the car due to the danger of the oncoming train, but they failed to realize the seriousness of the situation.

Repeatedly, the officer reminds the duo that the car will not move, having been caught on the tracks with the back wheels now halfway buried in the dirt and rocks from being spun repeatedly.
‘You want to get hit by a train?’ the cop asks.
With absolutely no urgency and after several more attempts by the officer to coax the pair out, they slowly get to their feet and step out of the car. But not before the woman makes one more plea: ‘Baby,’ she says, ‘try to the right.’
Once she’s out of the car and can survey the damage, she giggles and tells the officer: ‘There’s got to be a way to get the car out.’
Moments later, Jordan has another idea, looking around at the three officers who are on scene to inspect the situation after they were alerted that Jordan had, moments before the crash, fled a traffic stop.
‘There’s four of us guys,’ he says, counting himself and the officers, and not including his female pᴀssenger.
‘We can push this motherf**ker.’
The first responders disagrees, saying his priority is now the safety of all involved as he tries to alert Sunrail of the problem on the tracks before the scheduled train approaches.
‘The concern is it’s a $300,000 vehicle,’ Jordan countered.
‘I would like to push this s**t out of the way. We don’t need a tow truck. Can I get some manpower?’
But the officer said there was no way Jordan was getting behind the wheel again. He observed movement from Jordan and warned him to ‘keep your hands out of your pockets.’
‘There’s nothing in my pocket,’ Jordan ᴀssured him.
Later, after Jordan failed a sobriety test and became uncooperative, officers found a baggie which tested positive as cocaine in his front right pocket. During the patdown, he invoked the name of his famous father.
‘I’m Marcus Jordan,’ he said. ‘I’m Michael Jordan’s son. I’m not doing anything wrong, I’m just trying to get home and I made a wrong turn. Clearly we would just like to get our car off of the f**king train tracks.’
His female companion chimed in, giggling. ‘It’s true,’ she said. ‘I can confirm.’

Later, as Jordan got more desperate, he repeatedly asked why the officers couldn’t help to push the car off the tracks.
‘Fellas, fellas, I’m just trying to get my car off the train track. I didn’t realize this was a train track,’ he said.
‘The quicker we move this motherf**ker the better… I’m just saying if there’s six of us and we throw this thing in reverse… I’m fine behind the wheel.’
The 34-year-old was arrested in the early hours of Tuesday and booked into the Orange County jail, the arrest report seen by DailyMail.com states.
His bond was set at $4,000 and he was pictured leaving jail at around noon on Tuesday.
The Maitland police department said officers noticed Marcus’ headlights on a railroad. When they approached the luxury SUV, they noticed bumper damage and kicked-up rocks, which suggested Marcus had been trying to flee but could not.
Officers noted a strong smell of alcohol, slurred speech and bloodsH๏τ eyes.
According to the police report, Jordan repeatedly insisted he was under the BAC legal limit of 0.08. ‘He stated he had some drinks, I asked the defendant how many drinks and he advised he did not consume enough to be over the legal limit of 0.08,’ the officer recalled in the police report. I asked him a number of drinks and he repeated he was not over the legal limit. The odor of an alcoholic beverage was getting stronger as he spoke and his eyes were red, glᴀssy and bloodsH๏τ. I noticed his speech was slurred and he would get agitated and irritated quickly.’
