2024 Tournament PreviewAuburn beat up on poor competition this year, with no losses in Quads 2-4 and only one Quad 1 win entering the SEC tournament. Nevertheless, after trouncing Florida in conference tourney final, the Tigers boast the nation's 10th-ranked offense and fourth-ranked defense, per KenPom's efficiency metric. The offense runs through 6-10 Johni Broome (16.2 ppg, 8.4 rpg, 2.3 bpg), who has 13 double-doubles. Forward Jaylin Williams (12.4 ppg) and guard Chad Baker-Mazara (10.3 ppg) are double-digit scorers and junior Denver Jones (8.9 ppg) shoots 41.0 percent from deep, though the Tigers are not prolific from the perimeter (111th nationally in 3-point percentage). Defense is elite, though, as Auburn allows the lowest effective field-goal percentage (43.4) in the nation, ranking first against 2-pointers and ninth against 3-pointers. Broome's prowess and suffocating defense have taken Auburn far. If a more formidable backcourt threat emerges, the Tigers could make a run.
