Dealing with ankle concern Broome appears to have picked up an ankle injury during Tuesday's 89-56 win over Missouri, Richard Silva of the Montgomery Advertiser reports.

Impact After slamming one down in the first half versus Missouri, Broome limped off to Auburn's bench but eventually returned a few minutes later. The 6-foot-10 sophomore later dunked again, and this time he immediately signaled to the Tigers' bench for a substitution. Postgame, Broome said "I'm gonna be alright, just kind of a tough fall," but nonetheless, his status is something to monitor before Saturday's game against Vanderbilt.
