Former NBA star Carlos Boozer shares his dad advice for Duke star commits Cameron and Cayden Boozer

With Cooper Flagg, Kon Knueppel, and Khaman Malauch set to leave Duke for the 2025 NBA Draft, Jon Scheyer’s team will replenish its roster with two of the highest-ranked recruits in the nation.

The Boozer twins, Cameron and Cayden, will follow in their father’s footsteps by taking their talents to Durham and trying to do what this very talented class couldn’t do in the Final Four.

Their father, former NBA star Carlos Boozer, is quite familiar with everything they’re about to experience. That’s why he shared some fatherly advice ahead of their collegiate journey.

“I just want them to be themselves. I think we live in an era where so many people, so many people try to emulate somebody else, or try to be somebody that they’re not. I just want my kids to be true to who they are inside and to do things their way,” Boozer told Sports Illustrated.

At the end of the day, they will have to go through their own journey. Not even twins have the same exact path to the league, and they will both have to earn their stripes regardless of their last name.

The Boozer twins will most likely make it to the NBA after one season in college, and with their privileged gene pool and the top-notch preparation they’ve had, they might even have a better career than their old man.
