The Lady Demons' second-leading scorer told Demon Sports Network play by play man Tony Taglavore at halftime that she may have a broken hand.
Worse, it's her right (shooting) hand, not her left hand as I mistakenly said earlier.
She is averaging 10.8 points and shooting an amazing 52 percent from 3 point range to rank among the best in the nation.
She said trainer Jason Drury told her they would look at the hand tomorrow and get it X-rayed and examined, and she might have surgery as quickly as tomorrow. If so, she could miss 4-6 weeks. Brooke had the stiff upper lip, but it did quiver more than once. She wants to play. She's as competitive as it gets.
She said she knew it hurt but she wasn't sure how bad the injury was until she air-balled a 3-pointer on the next trip down the floor after the injury, which happened when she went for a steal and knocked the ball out of bounds.
Check the website for Matt Bonnette's reports tonight and tomorrow on Brooke's status.
