“I talked to them at the combine, and we had a very good talk,” Broome said during a Thursday night appearance on SiriusXM. “Just how my schedule was, I wasn’t able to get out there (for a workout). But it’s a good group. I think I’m in a good situation. I walk into a very good team that I can help win games and get in the playoffs.”

Thursday night was great for Auburn basketball, as three members of its Final Four squad have made deals with NBA franchises.

The Philadelphia 76ers selected Johni Broome, a center out of Auburn University, in the second round of the NBA Draft.
