2025 Men's Basketball Recruiting

[DavidBenAkiva]

Duke Basketball never stops, am I right? Might as well get this thing kicked off now that the new school year is underway.

Two of the most promising high school freshmen this season are none other than the Boozer boys, Cameron and Cayden. Their father played at Duke. Apparently, he even won a National Championship on the 2001 team. Went by the name Carlos or C-Booz.

Anyway, the Boozer twins impressed at the CP3 Rising Stars competition over the weekend. Cameron is a 6'8" forward noted for his athleticism and impressive shooting for his size. Cayden is a few inches shorter and is a forward but with a more impressive head of hair if I do say so myself.

Cameron left quite an impression at the Rising Stars event. Andrew Slater noted that he was particularly exceptional. Might want to keep tabs on the two.

Here's the other Boozer boy, Cayden.

How crazy would it be to play in the building that you were named after? Pressure much?

Cameron Hall from Canada didn't have a great career at Duke, though the comparison is not the same -- the building was Indoor Stadium when Hall was born.

Very interesting to see the Boozer boys coming along.

He stands just the way his Dad did with his arms behind his back. Typical Carlos pose.

Whew, looked at that photo quickly and thought that was a Carolina jersey.

How did Cameron Hall do in all the other buildings named after him: the dining hall, the residence hall...any other hall because I'm not an expert on which buildings were on campus in 1977...

The Boozer Bros made their high school debut last night against Vertical Academy. which features one of the top players in the Class of 2023, Mikey Williams. Cameron was a show-stealer in this one, scoring 28 points with 15 rebounds. He displayed the ability to score from all 3 levels, draining open 3's, using his advanced ball-handling skills to get to the rim, and everything in between. Cayden also displayed an advanced game, including high-flying dunks and the ability to score in transition.

2025 is a long way off in terms of development by players. It will probably be at least a couple years until we have a good sense if the Boozer boys skill sets make them the kind of prospect where Duke is a good fit. It will be fun to watch their development.

By the way, the class of 2025 also includes Jermaine O'Neal Jr, son of the former Indian Pacer all-star (and participant in the Malice at the Palace). His father was one of the early high schoolers to go directly into the NBA draft.

The Boozer Twins announced on their IG stories that they have both received an offer from Coach Scheyer and Duke University. They become the first members of the Class of 2025 to receive offers. Frankly, it would have been a shock if they didn't get an offer. Hopefully, they follow in their father's footsteps and play their college home games at Cameron Indoor Stadium.

Must be fun times in the Boozer driveway.

Cooper Flagg from Maine on other Duke sites might get an offer.

Flagg announced via twitter that he received an offer from Coach Scheyer. Flagg, like Cameron and Cayden Boozer, is a fraternal twin. He and his brother, Ace, are from Maine and will both play at IMG Academy for high school beginning their sophomore years. Cooper is an elite recruit and will be considered among the top players in what is shaping up to be a very, very special group of players in the Class of 2025. That includes the Boozer twins and Koa Peat, a 6'8" forward from Arizona. Flagg reminds me a lot of Jayson Tatum. They are both long, skilled, with a high release and complete offensive skillset. Here's a video of Flagg competing against the Boozer twins earlier this spring.

If like to think Flag would have to pick a new number to wear at a Duke but, these days, maybe not.

I am going to do a little reading between the lines from his Twitter:

Re: Bryant offer: "Honored..."
Re: Albany offer: "Blessed..."
Re: Iowa offer: "... blessed..."
Re: UCLA offer: "Excited..."
Re: Michigan offer: "Very excited..."
Re: Duke offer: "Extremely ex[c]ited and happy to announce ..."

Also interesting to note that it appears Amile is the assistant assigned to recruit Flagg.

This tweet from his mother is telling.

He has always been a Duke fan but a lot will go into his final decision.

Here’s another 2025 rising star to keep an eye on. Bryson Tiller, 6-8, 190, combo forward who goes to Pace Academy, Wendell Carter’s Atlanta high school. He’s holding offers from Auburn, GA Tech, Indiana and Houston among others. I have it from a very good source that he is high on Duke and would love to get an offer.

“Tiller is a smooth athlete with long arms and pretty advanced skill for a young player,” Bossi wrote. “He can really put the ball on the floor and attack out of the high post, shows promise as a big man who can stretch the floor, passes very well out of double teams for such a young player and shows a lot of versatility on the defensive end where he controls the glass and protects the rim.”
