Marcus Jordan has reconnected with his father, Michael Jordan, and the rest of his family following this week’s celebrity deaths.

WWE icon Hulk Hogan and heavy metal legend Ozzy Osbourne both passed away this week. And they weren’t even the only celebs to die, with actor Malcolm-Jamal Warner and jazz musician Chuck Mangione also meeting their ends.

Marcus claims to have been hit particularly hard by the deaths of Hogan and Warner, which prompted him to reach out to his family.

The 34-year-old shared via Instagram that he contacted his family following the sad news because “life is short, and it’s important to spend time with the people you love.”


He also posted several photos of Warner from his younger days, plus pics of Hogan holding Jordan sneakers.

The details of Marcus’s relationship with his dad and the rest of his family are unknown, but he hasn’t been seen with the former Bulls superstar since February 2024. That he had to reach out to everyone suggests they were probably estranged, at least for a while.

His father is known to have been displeased with his decision to date the ex-wife of his former teammate, which may have caused some tension.

Marcus, who has been sober for over three months following an arrest earlier this year, also confessed that the deaths almost got him to take a drink. However, he remains steadfast in his sobriety journey, clocking 107 days as of the time of the posts.

Brittney Griner Finally Breaks Her Silence Over Alleged Caitlin Clark Comments That The WNBA Refused To Investigate

WNBA star Brittney Griner was at the center of a new debate over what she allegedly said in a game against basketball phenom Caitlin Clark.

The Atlanta Dream center found herself at the center of social media controversy last month when some fans thought she disparaged Indiana Fever star guard Caitlin Clark upon fouling out.

The game’s broadcast focused on an upset Griner saying something as she returned to the Dream bench after fouling out of the game. While there’s no audio of this moment, some who tried to read Griner’s lips thought she called Clark a “trash f–king white girl.”

However, there’s no proof of Griner saying those actual words since others thought she stated something else.

It took weeks for someone to finally get a quote from her, and she provided much of nothing.

Brittney Griner was asked about this moment before her team’s June 15 game against the Washington Mystics and said, “I remember fouling out, being mad. I remember fouling out on, I believe it was [Natasha] Howard driving to the basket. They said I put my hand in.”

Moments before the conclusion of the Indiana Fever’s 81-76 victory over the Dream at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta weeks ago, cameras seemingly caught Atlanta Dream star center Brittney Griner labeling Caitlin Clark “trash” before calling her a “f***ing white girl” in frustration over a foul on Natasha Howard.

The clip of Griner speaking on the bench, lacking context, spread on social media and went viral.

Griner, who won a gold medal for Team USA at the Summer Olympics in Paris in 2024, essentially got aw@y with whatever came out of her mouth because the league basically ignored the controversy.

This incident is not the only time Griner vocalized her frustrations this season. Following another game, she stormed off mid-interview, yelling at the referees to “be f—ing better.
