Michael Jordan’s son Marcus swaps twists for braids as he debuts new hairdo in latest selfie

Michael Jordan’s son, Marcus Jordan, shared a picture of his new hairstyle on Instagram on Sunday. Marcus, who had been wearing twists for at least a year, changed up his look, opting for braids instead. Jordan showed off the change in a selfie shared on his Instagram story.

“Straight back baby rows,” he captioned the picture.

Jordan has largely stayed out of the public eye in the second half of 2025. He courted controversy earlier in the year when he was arrested and charged with possession of ketamine. He was granted bail in less than 24 hours after paying a $4,000 bond.
