The Duke Blue Devils‘ freshman plays beyond his years and is dominating college basketball already.
One stat might prove that as much as anything, via OptaStats:
“Cameron Boozer of @DukeMBB is the only DI player in the last 30 seasons to have at least 250 points, 100 rebounds and 40 assists through his first 11 career games.”
Nobody has started their Division I career better than Boozer, by that measure, in recent history.

Boozer is also averaging 1.6 steals and 0.9 blocks per game while shooting 56.3% from the floor, 34.8% from 3 and 78.9% from the foul line.
The son of former NBA star Carlos Boozer, this Boozer has the Blue Devils off to an 11-0 start, including a couple of marquee high-major victories.
Boozer has looked good against pretty much every opponent, and that’s not expected to change as the season goes along. He was always viewed as particularly polished.
He should be one of the top-three picks in the 2026 NBA Draft, too. His stardom is just getting rolling.
