Duke basketball recruiting: Cameron Boozer already cooking NBA players
Duke basketball recruiting: Cameron Boozer, his twin brother Cayden Boozer, and Duke one-and-done Marvin Bagley III all competed in a Miami Pro League game last week.
Both Bagley, who is currently playing for the Detroit Pistons, and Cayden Boozer, who is a point guard predicted to be a five-star prospect, contributed their fair share of memorable moments.
On the other hand, social media users were amazed by some of Cameron Boozer’s best plays against current and former NBA players.
A potential candidate for the Duke basketball team who is showing maturity well above his years
Yes, the 6-foot-9 and 215-pound Cameron Boozer, the son of Duke basketball star Carlos Boozer who is No. 1 overall on the 2025 ESPN 25, held his own — and then some — against players like Michael Beasley and Haywood Highsmith. Cameron Boozer is ranked No. 1 overall on the 2025 ESPN 25.
Consider the fact that Michael Beasley, who ended up scoring the game-winning shot, is 33 years old and has spent the past 11 seasons playing in the NBA. In all but four of those seasons, he has averaged more than ten points per game. And Haywood Highsmith is a 26-year-old player who is still under contract with the Miami Heat after having appeared in 19 games for the team during the previous season.
When it comes to the Boozer twins, they are approaching their 15th birthday in a little under a month’s time.
The 6-foot-3 and 185-pound Cayden Boozer, who is ranked No. 24 overall on the 2025 ESPN 25, was one of the first three prospects in their class to receive an offer from first-year Duke basketball head coach Jon Scheyer back in May. Cameron Boozer was also one of the first three prospects in their class to receive an offer.
Cooper Flagg, a native of Maine who plays small forward and is a versatile phenom, transferred to Duke-friendly Montverde Academy (Florida) for his upcoming second season. Flagg rates third on the early 2025 Blue Devil wishlist and is the other elite player on the list.
