Carlos Boozer's twin sons, Cameron and Cayden, are two of the most highly touted high school prospects of late. On Monday, the father and sons celebrated a milestone together on national TV.

Boozer, a two-time All-Star, was on ESPN's "NBA Today" to discuss the just-announced 2025 McDonald's All-American rosters, which his boys have been named to. When asked by Malika Andrews if he had advice for Cameron and Cayden, Boozer offered these words of wisdom:

"Just go enjoy yourself," said Boozer. "Enjoy the festivities, live in the moment, be where your feet are. The game's gonna be fun, but there's so much other stuff that comes with it."

To Boozer's surprise, his twin boys popped up on a split screen, which meant that they'd heard every word he had just said on ESPN. Asked by Andrews to respond to their father's advice, the boys had this to say:

"I thought it was pretty good, you know," said Cameron as his beaming father looked on. "Great advice, great advice."
"It's a blessing," said Cayden of the All-American distinction. "It's something we've dreamed about since we were little kids...I'm so thankful to be a part of it."

Boozer then took the opportunity to speak directly to his talented offspring:

"I'm so proud of y'all, man. You've been making us proud from day one," said Boozer. "Burger boys! You feel me?"

The retired player-turned-analyst knows precisely what it's like to be a "Burger Boy." Back in 1999, Boozer played in the McDonald's All-American Game. Playing for the West Boys team, the Juneau-Douglas High School standout teamed up with the likes of Nick Collison and Jason Kapono. On the opposite end, the East Boys team featured prospects like Jay Williams and Keith Bogans.

Boozer went on to lead in rebounds with his 11 boards. Also, his 22-point performance was second only to Jonathan Bender's MVP output of 31 markers.

Earlier this month, Boozer sent love to Cameron and Cayden after they helped lead Columbus High School to an epic 91-35 win over the Coral Park Rams.

The twins' highlights were featured in an Instagram post by the basketball page, Overtime:

Cameron and Cayden displayed a different level of polish in the clip, not to mention plenty of hustle.

Boozer went on the comments section of the post to give his boys a shoutout:
