Basketball runs deep in the Boozer bloodline. More than two decades ago, Carlos Boozer made his mark at the McDonald's All-American Game before launching a stellar career at Duke and in the NBA. Now, his son, Cameron Boozer, is proving that greatness is hereditary, carving out his path with dominance at the high school level.

Adding Another Trophy to the Collection
Cameron Boozer has left no stone unturned in his quest for excellence. The Christopher Columbus High School star has been racking up accolades, and his latest honor, the Morgan Wootten Boys Basketball Player of the Year, cements his place as one of the nation's elite prospects. His relentless work ethic and polished skill set have made him a force to be reckoned with on the court.
Shining on the Biggest Stage
On one of the biggest platforms for high school basketball, Boozer delivered yet another standout performance. The five-star Duke commit was a bright spot for the East squad, earning co-MVP honors in the annual showcase. His well-rounded stat line, 16 points and 12 rebounds on 6-of-12 shooting, highlighted his ability to impact the game on both ends of the floor.
Despite Boozer's heroics, the West team secured a 105-92 victory, fueled by Kansas commit Darryn Peterson, who dropped 18 points en route to sharing the co-MVP distinction. Even in defeat, Boozer's presence was undeniable, showcasing why he is one of the most highly touted recruits in the country.

The Boozer Twins: Duke's Next Dynamic Duo
Standing at 6-foot-10 and 240 pounds, Cameron has dominated high school basketball alongside his twin brother, Cayden Boozer, who will also be heading to Duke. Together, they have guided the Christopher Columbus Explorers to an impressive 27-3 record this season, clinching four consecutive Florida state championships and earning a spot in the Chipotle Nationals in early April.
Their father, Carlos Boozer, watched proudly from the courtside, reminiscing about his own McDonald's All-American performance in 1999, where he notched 22 points and 11 rebounds. Now, Cameron is forging his legacy, but with the same competitive fire that defined his father's career.
Duke's 2025 recruits balled out in the McDonalds All-American game:
Cameron Boozer - 23 mins, 16 points, 12 rebounds (Co-MVP)
