Auburn star center Johni Broome is officially questionable for Saturday’s game against Tennessee, according to Friday’s Southeastern Conference availability report. It comes after Bruce Pearl told reporters Thursday that there was “a possibility” Broome would try and practice.

Auburn head men’s basketball coach Bruce Pearl revealed ailing Tigers center Johni Broome is a “game-time decision” for Saturday night’s Top 10 showdown vs. No. 6 Tennessee, according to Field of 68’s Jeff Goodman.
