The commitments continue the Boozer family legacy at Duke, as their dad won a national championship with the Blue Devils in 2001.

The twin brothers out of the Class of 2025 picked Duke over Miami along with other strong programs such as Kentucky, Arkansas and North Carolina.

Cameron is considered by 247Sports’ composite rankings to be the No. 2 player overall and the top power forward in the country as well as the No. 1 prospect out of the state of Florida. Cayden is the No. 21 player nationally, the No. 4 point guard and the No. 4 player from Florida, according to the same source.

The commitments from Cameron and Cayden mark the first for Duke out of the Class of 2025, but that will likely change as the season begins.

According to 247Sports, the Blue Devils boasted the top recruiting class in 2024, highlighted by a generational talent in Cooper Flagg, the No. 1 player in the country.

Along with Flagg, Duke has three other 5-star prospects and a pair of 4-star prospects incoming this season.

As they wait for the arrival of the Boozer twins next season, the Blue Devils will look to continue finding success under head coach Jon Scheyer in his third season at the helm.
