Like Father like Sons, Michael Jordan’s sons have Gambling Itch

Turns out that just like dad, NBA icon Michael Jordan’s sons enjoy gambling just like dear old dad does.  

 

We have all heard the stories concerning the elder Jordan and his gambling escapades throughout his career.

 

During the Bulls' playoff run in 1993, Jordan was seen gambling in Atlantic City, New Jersey the night before a game against the New York Knicks where he supposedly lost $10,000 on one bet.

 

During that same year, author Richard Esquinas wrote a book claiming he had won $1.25 million from Jordan on the golf course.

 

Jordan once bet his teammates that his luggage would come off the plane first after they landed. It did, but it turns out he paid the luggage handlers to make sure.

 

Now according to SportsByBrooks, Jordan’s two sons are enjoying gambling as well, and losing in the process.

 

20-year-old Marcus Jordan and 21-year-old Jeff Jordan, who play for the UCF Knights basketball team, let the world know about it via a Marcus Twitter post after their adventures in Las Vegas last weekend.

 

Although this has since been deleted from his twitter account, SbB got a shot of it before it was removed; no doubt Dad had something to do with it.

 

 

 

Haze is a nightclub in the Aria Hotel and Casino City Center. How Marcus, who is only 20, got into the casino club is yet another question.

 

The Jordan brothers were in Vegas to visit the fantasy camp run by dear old dad at the Mirage Resort Casino.
