Cameron Boozer made his dad, Carlos Boozer, proud on Monday after he was named Player of the Game in the Hoophall Classic. The Duke signee scored a game-high 31 points to lead Columbus High School (Miami, Fla.) to a 75-65 win over Perry High School (Gilbert, Az.) at Springfield College in Massachusetts.
Boozer was efficient on the offensive end, shooting 11-for-15 from the field, including 2-for-2 from the 3-point area. He was automatic at the charity stripe, knocking down all seven of his free-throw attempts. He also grabbed 13 rebounds and dished out three assists to finish the game with a double-double.
Boozer did most of his damage in the first half, scoring 20 of his 31 points during that period to help Columbus grab a 39-26 lead at the break. Hoophall Classic's Instagram page posted highlights of Boozer's performance against Perry after the game. The clip showed Boozer dominating inside the paint, bringing the house down with a couple of dunks.
The video also showed Boozer's range. He drained several jumpers in the clip, including one from deep. Former NBA star Carlos Boozer reacted quickly to his son's highlights, commenting with two fire emojis.
Cayden Boozer also delivered in the win against Perry. He scored 11 points and dished out eight assists to help his brother Cameron on the offensive end. He shot 4-for-7 from the floor, including 1-for-2 from the 3-point area.
Koa Peat scored 18 points in a losing effort for Perry. He saw his playing time drop after picking up four quick fouls in the first half. The five-star recruit remains uncommitted, with several college teams vying for his services.
Cameron Boozer signs with Duke to follow in his famous dad's footsteps
Cameron Boozer announced in October that he would commit to the Blue Devils alongside his brother Cayden Boozer. The talented twins made their move official on Nov. 14, signing their scholarship agreements with Duke.
The Boozer brothers' choice of Duke was not a surprise, as their famous father had played there before turning professional. He played under Mike Krzyzewski for three seasons, helping the Blue Devils win the national championship in 2001 against Arizona. He scored 12 points and grabbed 12 rebounds in the title game.
