Johni Broome Brutally Trolled by Language App After NBA Combine Performance

It was not quite supposed to go that way for Auburn star and Wooden finalist Johni Broome. The hope was that, after a season in which he posted 18.6 points and led the SEC with 10.8 rebounds and 2.1 blocked shots, Broome would show up at the NBA's predraft combine in Chicago and show enough improvement in the past month to push him from the upper part of the second round into the first round of next month's draft. 

Instead, Broome had one of the most memorable measurement flops in recent combine history, as he stepped up to participate in the standing vertical leap. Broome, as video showed, had trouble getting off the ground. 

His vertical was recorded at 24.5 inches which, by way of comparison, would have finished as the sixth-worst in last year's draft class. For a guy who came in as a player with red flags for athleticism, the measurement is not going to help his cause, and will almost certainly mean he will remain entrenched in the second round--if he gets drafted at all.
