Loyola Marymount forward Jevon Porter, brother of Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. and Jontay Porter, was arrested Friday night on suspicion of DWI.
Missouri State Sgt. Kyle Green confirmed Porter's arrest in Boone County to ESPN's Myron Medcalf. He was initially stopped for speeding prior to the arrest.
Green told Medcalf that Porter was released on summons and not booked into jail.
Loyola Marymount issued a statement about Porter's arrest to Medcalf: "We are aware of recent reports in the media and are gathering information about the matter."
Per the online arrest report from the Missouri State Highway Patrol, Porter was charged with DWI and speeding. He was arrested at 1:31 a.m. local time on April 27.
A 3-star recruit coming out of high school in 2022, Porter played his first two college seasons at Pepperdine. He finished second on the team in scoring during the 2023-24 campaign with 16.2 points and 5.9 rebounds per game to receive All-WCC honorable mention honors.
Porter entered the transfer portal in March and signed a letter of intent with Loyola Marymount on April 22.
Michael Porter Jr. is in his sixth season with the Nuggets after being selected with the 14th pick in the 2018 NBA draft.
Jontay Porter received a lifetime ban from the NBA on April 17 for violating league rules related to gambling, including wagering on games. He most recently played for the Toronto Raptors, appearing in 26 games this season.
