Cameron Boozer doesn't have any qualms about the 'Boozer twins' nickname bestowed on him and his brother, Cayden. With the 'Boozer Twins' or the 'Boozer Brothers' nickname widely popular in basketball media, Cameron and Cayden explained why the collective identity doesn't bother them as individuals.

In an interview with CBS Sports ahead of the Jordan Brand Classic, the brothers addressed how they feel personally being tagged the “Boozer Twins”. Cameron said (2:07),

“I kind of enjoy the fact that we are the Boozer Brothers, the Boozer Twins, because I think us being family is such a strong and powerful thing. And we have an amazing backstory. So, as much as I am an individual, I'm super proud of the Boozer name and the people that we've become. And I think everyone who knows us knows that we're individuals.”

When Cayden was asked if he shares his brother's views, he responded,

“Yeah, definitely. Obviously we're both individuals. But at the end of the day, we're still twins and we're playing on the same team. So, obviously we're going to be put together.”

The 17-year-old also pointed out that many brothers are at odds with each other in their age. So their collective nickname actually points to the strength they have as a family unit.
