NORTH AUGUSTA, S.C. — Facing off against Team Maine United and the No. 1-ranked prospect in the nation, Cameron and Cayden Boozer of Nightrydas dominated the competition Friday en route to a 43-point victory over the Cooper Flagg-led Maine United squad at Peach Jam.
Cameron, a 6-foot-9, 215-pound power forward, finished with 20 points on 9-for-13 shooting, 12 rebounds and four assists.
“I feel like we played good as a team,” Cameron said. “We locked up, we rebounded together and we got out in transition to do what we needed to do.”
Cameron listed offers from Duke, Michigan, LSU, Miami, FIU and Arkansas State.
“I’m looking for a team that’s big on education as well as performance on the court,” Cameron said. “I want a team that plays free-flowing, lets me space out and play how I play.”
Ranked by ESPN.com as the No. 1 overall prospect in the class of 2025, Cameron describes himself as an “energy guy.”
“I play defense. I rebound. I push the tempo,” he said. “Overall, I just bring a lot to the game.”
Meanwhile, Cayden, a 6-foot-3, 190-pound point guard, finished with 10 points on 5-for-7 shooting and five rebounds.
“I feel like I was pretty good,” Cayden said. “I just able to play defense, get my teammates in spots so that they can score and getting mine when I could.”
Cayden listed offers from FIU, Miami, Duke, Michigan and Florida State and called the recruiting process “a great feeling.”
“I want a coach that trusts my ability and will tell me when I’m doing things wrong, but will also tell me when I’m doing things right,” Cayden said. “I want them to be honest with me and a place where I can fit into the system.”
Ranked by ESPN.com as the No. 24 overall prospect in the class of 2025, Cayden describes himself as a “slasher.”
“I’m also a true point guard where I could get into the paint, get it to my teammates,” he said. “I look for my shot after I find my teammates and I play defense really hard. I can guard one through four.”
