Cameron and Cayden Boozer, the standout twins from Miami Columbus High School, are set to announce their college commitments on Friday, with the basketball world eagerly awaiting their decision between Duke and Miami. Their choice could significantly impact the landscape of college basketball, particularly for the Hurricanes, who are looking to elevate their recruiting class for 2025.
As top-tier prospects, Cameron and Cayden have been making waves in the recruiting scene. Cameron Boozer is currently ranked as the second-best player in the 2025 class and is regarded as the top power forward. His twin brother, Cayden, is also a highly sought-after recruit, ranked 21st overall and considered the fourth-best point guard. Their rankings underscore their immense talent and potential, which has attracted attention from numerous top programs.
Miami has recently made strides in recruiting, securing commitments from four-star players Ben Ahmed, a 7’0 center, and Matthew Able, a guard, making their 2025 class currently ranked 18th nationally. The addition of the Boozer twins could dramatically shift that ranking, propelling Miami to the top of the 2025 recruiting class. Their commitment would not only enhance Miami’s roster but also mark a significant achievement for the program, as Cameron would become the highest-ranked recruit in its history, while Cayden would be a close second.
On the other hand, Duke, known for its storied basketball program and success in developing NBA talent, presents a compelling alternative. The allure of playing under Coach Jon Scheyer, along with the chance to compete at a high level, could be a strong factor in their decision. Both twins have previously attended games at Cameron Indoor Stadium, further indicating their interest in the Blue Devils.
Moreover, the potential commitment of the Boozer twins could have implications beyond just their immediate impact. Freshman Jalil Bethea, the highest-ranked recruit in Miami’s history, is projected to be a first-round NBA draft pick in 2025. If the Boozers decide to join Miami, it might entice Bethea to return for his sophomore year, creating a powerhouse team capable of making significant runs in both the ACC and NCAA tournaments.
As Friday approaches, excitement builds around the Boozer twins’ announcement, with fans and analysts alike eager to see which program they will choose and how it will shape the future of college basketball.
