Updated throughout the day with quick takes from staff.
Jeff Jordan -- eldest son of Michael Jordan, and no, he's not the one with the shoe issues -- has been suspended two games by Illinois for playing in an unsanctioned event last summer. Jordan quit the team at the end of last season before deciding to return this year; in the meantime, he played in a three-on-three tournament. Had Jordan decided to stay retired (see what I did there?), the event wouldn't have mattered. Since he's decided to return, he has to serve a two-game suspension.
This is not a big deal for Jordan, and seeing as Jordan is not exactly a major contributor to Illinois' team, AND given that Jordan is missing huge bouts with Southern Illinois-Edwardsville and Northern Illinois, it's not a huge deal for Bruce Weber, either.
