Auburn's Anfernee McLemore suffers gruesome dislocated ankle
Anfernee McLemore's pain was easy to see and hear.
The Auburn sophomore dislocated his left ankle Saturday in a gruesome injury at Colonial Life Arena in Columbia, S.C.
McLemore had a teammate fall into his lower leg, causing his left foot to turn in a direction it was not meant to. As he fell to the ground, he screamed in pain and Auburn's medical staff rushed onto the court.

The injury occurred late in the first half of Auburn's 84-75 loss to South Carolina. McLemore was coming off perhaps his best game of the season as he scored 13 points and had 11 rebounds as the 10th-ranked Tigers (23-4) knocked off Kentucky Tuesday.
The 6-7 forward waved to the crowd Saturday as he was taken off the court. The Georgia native was taken to a nearby hospital for X-rays.
