As the Cameron Crazies prepare to rock Cameron Indoor Stadium once again, three Duke standouts are poised to steal the spotlight in tonight’s showdown against Boston College.
The Freshman Phenom Taking Over

There is no reason why not to start with the freshman phenom himself, Cameron Boozer. The standout of Duke’s highly touted 2025 recruiting class has quickly established himself as the team’s go-to offensive option and a leading Rookie of the Year candidate in the ACC. The 6’9” son of former Duke star Carlos Boozer brings a polished inside-out game, strong rebounding, and excellent finishing ability around the rim.
He’s consistently delivered double-doubles and high-scoring outbursts, including a recent 24-point performance last Saturday in Duke’s win over Virginia Tech. Against Boston College’s frontcourt, expect Boozer to exploit mismatches in the post and on the boards while providing secondary playmaking. His energy and production often set the tone for the Blue Devils’ offense.
“Cam Boozer is never satisfied. I think that’s a great thing about him. He will always find something from tonight’s game where he’s pissed at what didn’t do as well, even though he had 32 and nine rebounds and four assists. That is what makes him special. He’s wired, where he’s all about his teammates. He’s not about numbers. He’s about winning. I think when your best player’s that way, it becomes contagious and has a big effect on the rest of the group,” said Duke head coach Jon Scheyer.

The 6’9” wing has shown improved shooting range, shot creation, and confidence, making him a matchup nightmare for opposing defenses…
