Carlos Boozer On The Dan Patrick Show Carlos Boozer recently made an appearance on the Dan Patrick Show, where the conversation largely centered on his sons, Cameron and Cayden, who are both excelling as freshmen at Duke University. Boozer shared insights about his approach to their college basketball careers, emphasizing his desire to stay out of their recruitment process and focus on their development. He also mentioned his plans to retire from competitive play, citing his intention to leave his legacy undefeated. A highlight of the interview was Boozer’s recounting of a story involving his former coach, Mike Krzyzewski. During a locker room moment, signs reading “Attack! Attack! Attack!” were displayed, and Coach K entered the room performing a somersault while shouting the same phrase. Boozer noted that this was particularly impressive given that Coach K had recently undergone hip replacement surgery, making the stunt both physically demanding and symbolic of his relentless drive. Boozer also referenced another memorable motivational tactic from Coach K’s early coaching days. On a different occasion, the lights in a locker room were turned off, and Coach K entered with a single candle. After a brief pause, he declared, “I come not to praise Louisville, but to bury them.” The team erupted in excitement, and though Duke ultimately lost to Louisville, the moment left a lasting impression. These stories underscore the unique ways Coach K has inspired his teams over the years, blending humor, intensity, and strategic flair. Boozer’s reflections on these moments highlight the enduring influence of Krzyzewski’s leadership and the cultural significance of Duke basketball.#cayden_boozers #cameron_boozers #carlos_boozers #dan_patrick_show #mike_krzyzewski
Duke’s Cameron and Cayden Boozer Reflect on Final Team Season Together Carlos Boozer, a former NBA All-Star and Duke graduate, has made it a priority to attend nearly every game this season to witness his twin sons’ final chapter as teammates. The former Blue Devils star, now a proud father, is acutely aware that this may be the last time Cameron and Cayden play together on the court. With Cameron preparing for the NBA draft and Cayden likely returning to school, Carlos and his wife, CeCe, are cherishing every moment of their sons’ shared journey. “I ain’t missing no games,” Carlos told Andscape. “I told CeCe this could be the last time our boys play together. Cam is coming into the draft, and Cayden’s most likely going back to school. Even if Cayden does go pro, who knows how the NBA will play out if they ever play together again? That’s why I’m not missing any games. We’re not taking it for granted, and they’re not either.” Cameron Boozer, a freshman for Duke, has been a standout performer this season. Averaging 22.5 points on 56.5% shooting and 10.2 rebounds per game, he has led Duke to a 32-2 record, an ACC regular-season and tournament title, and a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament. His career-high 35-point performance against Arkansas and his dominance in key matchups, including a 29-point game against Florida’s top frontcourt, have solidified his reputation as one of the nation’s top prospects. Coach Jon Scheyer praised Cameron’s maturity and leadership, calling him “a special guy” who has been “incredible for us.” Carlos, reflecting on his son’s achievements, believes Cameron may be the best freshman to ever wear a Duke jersey. “Cam has had one of the best seasons of any college basketball player,” he said.#duke_blue_devils #ncaa_tournament #cayden_boozers #cameron_boozers #carlos_boozers
Duke's Caleb Foster Out Indefinitely With Foot Fracture Duke starting guard Caleb Foster will miss an indefinite period due to a fractured right foot, according to head coach Jon Scheyer. The injury occurred during the first half of Duke’s game against North Carolina on Saturday, and Foster did not return to the court. Scheyer confirmed that Foster underwent surgery on Sunday and emphasized that the junior’s absence would span "foreseeable" time. While the coach did not completely rule out a potential return for the NCAA tournament, he acknowledged that Duke’s deep run in the postseason would require the team to adjust without Foster. Scheyer expressed optimism about Foster’s recovery, stating, “In his mind and our mind, we'll do everything we possibly can with our mindset to continue to advance where we can give him a shot to come back when it's all said and done.” The top-ranked Blue Devils will need to rely on their depth as they navigate the tournament without their fourth-leading scorer, who averages 8.5 points and 2.8 assists per game. Foster’s absence will likely elevate the role of freshman guard Cayden Boozer, who filled in for Foster during Saturday’s game against North Carolina. Boozer played 29 minutes, contributing seven points and five rebounds. The team also faces challenges with the injury to center Patrick Ngongba II, who is dealing with foot soreness and will miss the ACC tournament. Scheyer hopes Ngongba will recover in time for the NCAA tournament, as the 6-foot-11 forward averages 10.7 points and 6.0 rebounds per game. Ngongba, like Foster, did not play against North Carolina, further thinning Duke’s roster. The Blue Devils, seeded first in the ACC tournament, will face either Florida State or California in the quarterfinals on Thursday.#duke #jon_scheyer #caleb_foster #cayden_boozers #patrick_ngongba_ii
