AUBURN, AL — College basketball has officially witnessed history, and his name is Johni Broome.
In a feat that defies imagination and rewrites the NCAA record books, Auburn’s powerhouse forward Johni Broome has become the first player in NCAA men’s basketball history to eclipse 2,500 career points, 1,500 rebounds, and 400 blocks — an unprecedented triple milestone that has left fans, analysts, and former legends in awe.
Broome’s milestone journey is not just a statistical marvel — it’s a testament to his unmatched consistency, dominance on both ends of the court, and the heart of a generational athlete. No player in NCAA history — not Kareem, not Duncan, not Shaq — has ever recorded all three of these numbers in a collegiate career. Broome has now joined, and surpassed, the elite.
But that’s not where the accolades end. In recognition of his phenomenal season and career, Johni Broome was named a Unanimous First-Team All-American by the Associated Press (AP), National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC), United States Basketball Writers Association (USBWA), and Sporting News — a first in Auburn Tigers basketball history.
Head Coach Bruce Pearl, who has been instrumental in Broome’s development, called it “a moment that cements Johni as not just an Auburn legend, but a college basketball legend, period.”
Broome himself responded to the historic moment with humility:
“I just wanted to leave it all on the court. Auburn believed in me, and this is for the whole Tiger family.”
Across social media, the basketball world exploded with praise. Former greats, current NBA stars, and fans across the country celebrated Broome’s achievement with hashtags like #BroomeLegacy, #AuburnGOAT, and #BlockHistoryMade trending worldwide.
ESPN’s Jay Bilas described Broome’s resume as “one of the most complete careers we’ve ever seen in the college game — offensively, defensively, historically.”
With his name now etched in basketball immortality, Broome’s impact will live far beyond the box score. He’s a symbol of excellence, loyalty, and quiet greatness that turned into thunderous legacy.
Johni Broome didn’t just play the game — he changed it.
💥 Auburn’s Lionhearted Legend. NCAA’s Golden Standard.
