Morehead State men’s basketball star Johni Broome (21) has spent his sophomore year battling Utah Valley’s Fardaws Aimaq (23), Kentucky’s Oscar Tshiebwe (22) and North Carolina’s Armando Bacot (21) for the NCAA Division I lead in double-doubles.
“Shout out to those other guys,” Broome says, “but I don’t think any of us is looking at it as competition between us. It’s more of helping our teams to win — if you can get a double-double, you are more likely to win.”
A season ago, the 6-foot-10, 235-pound Broome was one of college basketball’s breakout stories.
