Ward adapts game after injury for Auburn Tigers
Auburn guard Warez Ward, a Texas transfer, rehabs a ruptured right quadriceps tendon suffered dunking in 2009. He lost vertical leap but remains a key playmaker, drawing fouls, hitting free throws, and sparking an energy shift as he adapts his attack and mindset. Ward credits patience, training, and Barbee’s system for his gradual return and continued impact.
