Columbia, Mo. ? The son of Missouri basketball coach Mike Anderson has been suspended indefinitely following an early-morning DUI arrest Friday.

Michael Anderson Jr., a reserve guard who has played in only 10 games this season, was arrested by campus police as he drove alone near Mizzou Arena, an athletic department spokesman said.

The Tigers (15-9, 4-7 Big 12) left town for today’s game at No. 18 Oklahoma State (19-6, 5-5) without the coach’s son. As part of his suspension, the younger Anderson will not practice with the team.

“We are obviously very disappointed in the decision made by Michael,” the coach said in a statement. “This is a serious error in judgment, and we regret any inconvenience this has brought upon our community, our campus and our program.

“Michael is a great young man, and our challenge now is to help him, and our team, learn from this situation.”

Any other disciplinary action “will be handled internally,” the coach said.

According to campus police, Anderson, 21, was driving west on Stadium Boulevard about 1:30 a.m. when he was observed weaving. Police stopped Anderson after he ran a red light.

Police arrested Anderson after administering a breath test that revealed a blood-alcohol level above the legal limit of .08 percent, said Weimer, who declined to be more specific.

The younger Anderson, a junior who followed his father to Columbia from Alabama-Birmingham after the 2005-06 season, averages less than two minutes and one point per game.
