Jevon Porter, the younger brother of Denver Nuggets star Michael Porter Jr., was reportedly arrested on a DWI charge in Missouri.
Citing Missouri State Highway Patrol records, Jevon Porter was arrested for speeding and suspicion of DWI at 1:31 a.m. local time in Boone County. He was released on summons aferwards.
Porter played two seasons for Pepperdine University but entered the transfer portal back in March.
He was coached by Lorenzo Romar, Michael’s godfather but the coach was dismissed following the season.
In 52 games over two seasons at Pepperdine, Porter averaged 13.8 points, 6.7 rebounds and 1.2 assists per contest, while shooting 45 percent from the field as a 6’11 power forward.
Porter, who is also the younger brother of Jontay Porter, originally hails from Columbia, Missouri, like his brothers and played for Michael’s MPJ Elite travel team. Jontay was issued a lifetime ban by the NBA earlier this month for gambling.
The hometown Tigers, who signed both Jontay and Michael in the class of 2017, are expected to be among a number of suitors interested in Jevon, who broke out as a freshman in 2022-23.
Porter will have two years of eligibility remaining at the school he chooses.
