Yes, he's smiling in his jail mug shot.

Perhaps that's why Central Florida basketball player Marcus Jordan was described as "very animated, intoxicated and uncooperative" by police when he was arrested in Omaha early Sunday following a disturbance outside a downtown hotel.

According to a news release, police responding to a call at the Embassy Suites found hotel security trying to subdue Jordan, who was having an argument with two women in the hotel driveway at 2:11 a.m.

Marcus, the youngest son of retired NBA great Michael Jordan, is a rising senior at Central Florida and averaged 13.7 points a game last season as a junior. Jordan's oldest son, Jeff, was on the UCF team after transferring from Illinois but left for "personal reasons" in January.

Jordan was booked at the Douglas County Department of Corrections for resisting arrest, disorderly conduct and obstructing. He had been released by Sunday night.

It's unclear if father Michael was there to bail his son out.
