AUBURN, Ala. -- No. 2 Auburn beat Georgia State 100-59 on Tuesday night but it came at a cost, as star center Johni Broome left with a shoulder injury.
Broome, who entered the contest averaging 19.7 points and a Division I-leading 12.7 rebounds, left the game and went to the locker room just 2:17 into the game.
Speaking after the win, Tigers coach Bruce Pearl told reporters that Broome's shoulder "came out and came right back in," something that happened to him last season, as well.
Pearl said Broome will be reevaluated Wednesday, at which point Auburn will know more on his status going forward.
