Carlos Boozer can be a happy man today: his son was voted best high school athlete of the year for men’s basketball. Excelling in the art of the orange ball, Cameron Boozer is already at the top of his generation. A talent that already makes several colleges salivate.
He is only in his second year of high school and is only 16 years old, but already recognized as the best player in the United States. Champion of his State with his chest, it was Kevin Love himself who came to personally give him the trophy. A nice surprise for a boy who dominates the competition with his brother, Cayden.
Sophomore Cameron Boozer has been named the 2022-23 Gatorade National Boys Basketball Player of the Year. 5x NBA All-Star and former Gatorade National Boys Basketball Player of the Year Kevin Love surprised Boozer with the news. Congrats to our guy, Cameron! #CPride #Forward pic.twitter.com/vsXVNxEr54

Before him, other kids with quite prestigious names have won this title. Among them ? Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Karl-Anthony Towns and Jayson Tatum. What to inflate the ego of the youngster? Not that much. Even if he is already thinking of the NBA. At the same time, his game is envious: some universities have already sent proposals, and the most distant predictions send him to the top of the Draft… 2026.
“I just want to show NBA scouts that I’m a winner. I love winning and I especially love helping my team do it. Every time I step onto the pitch, I want to improve and show scouts the different facets of my game” – Cameron Boozer.
For the dad, the pride is necessarily immense. Passed by the Cavaliers, the Bulls, the Jazz and briefly by the Lakers, he mainly evolved at Duke before the NBA. A university which made an offer to its son, and which today appears to be the favorite to recruit him. The latter is in any case admiring of the establishment.
“Duke is a great program and they have already trained a bunch of pros. Everything they do on the pitch shows me who they are, and historically they’ve always been very strong” – Cam Boozer
All that remains is to continue the efforts to hope to maintain this brilliant course. With a daron specialist in the discipline and an entourage devoted to this objective, nothing is impossible.
