Carlos Boozer’s twin sons, Cameron and Cayden, are set to start their collegiate careers in the 2024-25 NCAA season with the Duke Blue Devils. Their father played over 100 games at Durham, becoming a national champion, the ACC tournament MVP, and being named an ACC All-Freshman once.
Now, Cameron and Cayden Boozer want to write their own story, and Carlos Boozer is supporting them every step of the way. Recently, Greenlight Media shared an Instagram post celebrating Cayden’s accolades as he starts his college journey.
“The Boozer name carries a lot of weight in the world of basketball, Cayden is only adding to the legend. The top-25 ranked recruit is one of the best floor-generals in his class and will be the mastermind behind Duke’s offense next season,“ the caption reads.
Cayden’s parents, Carlos and CeCe Boozer, reacted to the post by showing love for their beloved son in the comment section, using heart emojis to celebrate the kid.
