Auburn's Broome Says There's No Pain In His Elbow And He Will Be Ready To Face Florida In Final Four

Auburn forward Johni Broome returned to practice for the Tigers on Thursday and said he has no pain in his right elbow and "no limitations" ahead of the Tigers' Final Four matchup with Florida.

Broome, a unanimous first-team AP All-American , is the Tigers' leading scorer and emotional leader. Auburn got a major scare when he injured his elbow in the Tigers' win over Michigan State to get to the Final Four.

He returned to that game but had been held out of practice until the team arrived in San Antonio.

"Ready to go. Taking it day by day, but set for Saturday," Broome said. "No limitations."

Broome wore two layers of sleeves on his right arm and said he made sure to test the elbow by pushing and shoving with teammates in game situations. The idea was to "make it mad a little bit" to see how it would respond.
