Cameron Boozer is On3’s No. 3 player…in high school basketball. Not in his 2025 class but over the totality of the 2023, 2024, and 2025 classes. Cameron Boozer also just turned 15 yesterday. 

“I bring a lot of energy,” Boozer told On3. “I’ll talk a lot, rebound, pass the ball, make plays for other players, and make everyone around me better. I try to take some from everyone. Like Paolo (Banchero), his jab step. A guy like Giannis, how he pushes in transition. I just try to watch the game and add things to my game.”

Boozer is also the son of former NBA All-Star Carlos Boozer.

“I don’t think we have that similar of a game,” Boozer said. “He was more of a pick-and-pop to midrange, faceup kind of guy. I feel like I can do it all on the court.”

Carlos Boozer played for three years at Duke, including the 2001 NCAA Championship team. Duke was one of Cameron Boozer’s first offers, joined by Florida State, Miami, and Michigan at the power five level. 

Boozer talks recruitment

Michigan: “Juwan (Howard) is a really straightforward guy, he will tell you how it is, and he will keep it real. If you’re not ready to play, he will tell you that. I think it’s a good program in general.”

Florida State: “It’s great. They play positionless basketball and like to pressure up. Whoever gets it just goes, and they like to play fast-paced.”

Miami: “They are really well coached. They don’t have the star power like all these other teams, but every year, they just play hard, and they can compete with big schools like Duke and Kentucky.”

Duke: “It’s like a family at Duke, you know, the Brotherhood. From what I hear from my mom and dad, it’s really a real thing. Everything at Duke is just Duke culture.”

G-League or Overtime Elite

Shareef Abdur Rahim and Jason Hart of the G-League were both front and center for Boozer’s 24-point performance against Rose City Rebels.

“I’m all in on going to college right now,” Boozer said. “That’s not really in my thought process right now.”

In his words

“I play best in a system that’s free-flowing, positionless, where anyone can handle the ball, anyone can push it,” Boozer said. “Somewhere where we all play together and lock up. A system like that, I feel like I will fit in there.”
