The past four Wooden Award winners have been veteran bigs. If that trend continues this season, it looks like Auburn’s Johni Broome is the leading candidate to make it happen.
Did you see what he did Saturday?
The 6-foot-10 senior took 18 shots, made half of them and finished with 21 points, 20 rebounds, six assists, three blocks and zero turnovers in a 91-53 win over Ohio State. That stat line makes him the first Division I player in the past 25 years to have at least 20 points, at least 20 rebounds and at least five assists with zero turnovers in the same game. According to Jared Berson, there have now been three individual performances of at least 20 points, at least 15 rebounds and at least five assists in Division I games so far this season.
Broome is responsible for all three.
