Carlos Boozer's ex CeCe drops 4-word reaction as son Cayden Boozer stuns crowd with buzzer-beater at Chipotle Nationals semifinals
On Friday, former NBA star Carlos Boozer's ex-wife Cindy "CeCe" Nichole Blackwell was spotted cheering for their son Cayden Boozer. She shared a clip of the 17-year-old making an impressive buzzer-beater during the Chipotle Nationals semifinals. Cayden suits up for the Christopher Columbus High School in Florida.
CeCe shared on Instagram a clip of her son scoring a buzzer beater against the fourth-seeded New Hampshire Brewster Academy. Captioning the story with a short note, the mother of three wrote:
"Cayden for the win!!!!"
With the National Championship at stake, the game between the No.1 seed Columbus High and the Brewster seemed to be destined for overtime. However, Cayden Boozer, who has been one of the most efficient guards in the last four years, had other plans.
The 2025 McDonald's All-American drove into the paint with three seconds to go and was immediately double-teamed. However, the talented youngster dispatched a shot from the free-throw line and sunk it to ensure that his team reached the National Championship finals.
Columbus High will next face the no. 10-seed Dynamic Prep in the Finals on Sunday as the Floridians look to win it all against the Texan giants. Cayden Boozer finished the game with nine points and nine assists, while his twin brother, Cameron Boozer, led the scoresheet with 15 points and 11 rebounds.
Cayden and Cameron Boozer continue to follow in their father's footsteps as he sends a "proud" message
Cayden and Cameron Boozer, the twin sons of former NBA star Carlos Boozer, continue to follow their father's career trajectory, as they made their McDonald's All-American debut on Tuesday. The duo were a part of Team East as they lost to Team West in a close 105-92 encounter.
Carlos Boozer, a member of the 1999 McDonald's All-American team, shared a "proud" message in reaction to his sons' appearance at the event as the duo continues to follow in his footsteps by joining Duke University:
"Super proud of my boys Cameron and Cayden. They’ve been working their butts off for this moment. As a proud alumni class of 1999 McDonald’s game, glad to see them follow in my footsteps, super proud of them," he said.
The twins have been two of the most exciting talents in the high-school basketball scene as they look set to follow their father's footsteps and committing with the Blue Devils. Boozer spent three years with Duke, between 199-2002, and won the NCAA championship with them in 2001.
