Nevada gambling regulators are investigation UCF basketball star Marcus Jordan’s recent partying in Las Vegas where he spent over $50,000, according to the Associated Press.
Officials are looking into whether the casino violated laws that prohibit minors to consume alcohol or compete in betting and gambling, according to Nevada Gaming Control Board enforcement chief Jerry Markling.
The 19-year-old guard said in a since-deleted tweet, “Last night was stupid … 35k at Haze… Totals 50k something the whole day.. Damn!! Going to the pool again today.. Gotta relax!”
Jordan later apologized for the tweet in an interview with Foxsports.com’s Jeff Goodman.
“I didn’t mean it the way it came across,” Marcus Jordan said. “My family and friends know the type of person I am.”
Stay tuned for details.
