WSJ – Marshall Henderson, the fiery guard who led Ole Miss to the NCAA Tournament’s round of 32 this season, was pulled over in May with what appeared to be small amounts of cocaine and marijuana in his car, according to an Oxford, Miss., police report.
Henderson was suspended indefinitely from the team Wednesday for what the school said was a violation of team rules. School officials didn’t elaborate on the suspension. A spokesman declined to comment Thursday. Henderson couldn’t be reached.
Henderson was pulled over May 4 on suspicion of speeding, and Oxford Police officer Shane Fortner smelled marijuana in Henderson’s vehicle, according to the police report. Henderson gave Fortner a bag containing “a small nugget of marijuana,” according to Fortner’s report, and a search by a police dog turned up a clear plastic bag that contained “a small amount of what appeared to be cocaine,” a report from another officer, Mark Hodges, said.
