Cameron Boozer trained with Malik Abdullahi ahead of Duke debut
On June 5, Cameron Boozer shared a video of himself training with Princeton forward Malik Abdullahi, ahead of his freshman year at Duke. Boozer made a full-court play that led to an alley-oop dunk by Abdullahi. Boozer’s twin brother, Cayden, also featured in the session.
Both brothers are gearing up for their debut at Duke, where their father Carlos Boozer played for three seasons. Carlos contributed to Duke's third NCAA title in 2001.
During high school, Cameron averaged 21.1 points, 11.3 rebounds and 3.5 assists over 123 games for the Columbus Explorers. Cayden averaged 14.5 points and 6.1 assists across 120 games. Together, they have won four FHSSA state titles, three Peach Jam championships and the 2024–25 Chipotle National Championship.
“Our goal is just to go there, to compete, and win a national championship,” Cameron told Hoopswire on May 7.
Duke fans certainly have all the reasons to anticipate their sixth title.
