The NBA Draft Combine doesn’t get as much publicity as the NFL Draft Combine since there are far fewer players and far fewer competitive metrics.

Auburn's Johni Broome makes declaration about Final Four availability

But that doesn’t mean there aren’t a few stunners every now and then.

At this year’s Combine it’s former Auburn star Johni Broome, who put in an absolutely embarrassing showing on his vertical jump drill. Broom averaged a career-high 10.8 rebounds per game for the Tigers in the 2024-25 season, so vertical leap is a pretty key part of his game.

But in the video shared by NBA Draft analyst Jonathan Givony, Broome couldn’t even reach the bottom marker on his jump.

It was a rather embarrassing effort that only gets more embarrassing when you see the replies in Givony’s X feed:

“Buddy needs to get Duolingo asap, that jump had Euroleague written all over it,” one user replied.

“He didn’t look good against college kids let alone playing in the league,” another remarked.

“They gonna use this clip to discredit this era in 20 years this dude just set us back,” a third wrote, adding a laughing emoji.

“Bro not jumping over a credit card.”

“Do not draft this guy in the first round holy (expletive).”

“Outside of bullying teams without bigs/skinny bigs I’ve never been overly impressed with his game. Objectively Cooper Flagg outplayed him by a lot and the race should not have been close.”

Even the Duolingo language learning app got in on the fun:

“Learn Chinese and try Super Duolingo today!” Duolingo wrote.

It’s a rough look, but hopefully one that doesn’t cost him significantly in the NBA Draft.

Broome was a First-team All-SEC selection in 2024 as well as the SEC Tournament MVP but really turned things up the following year.

This past season he was a consensus All-American, SEC Player of the Year, First-team All-SEC and winner of the Pete Newell Big Man and Karl Malone Awards.

At 6-foot-10 and 240 pounds, Broome has the prototypical size to be a solid player at the professional level.

Whether he’s good enough to be an NBA player though remains to be seen.
