Auburn’s Johni Broome will not return in Saturday’s game against South Carolina. Broome went down with an ankle injury at the start of the second half.

The Preseason All-American’s left foot came down on a teammates leg while grabbing a rebound in traffic. Broome was helped off the court and could not put any weight on his left ankle.

Broome, the team’s leading scorer during the season had six points and three rebounds for the Tigers before exiting the game.
