Cayden and Cameron Boozer reflect on their unique bond
In a conversation with ‘Foot Boom,’ the Boozer twins reflected on their unique bond and distinct personalities after the Notre Dame game. Cayden talked about how having a twin in itself is a unique experience, and playing with his brother brings him a sense of trust and reliability.
“Just having someone you can trust at all times. I’m really lucky to have a twin that I know so well,” Cayden said.
“We both understand where each other wants to be on the court. It definitely aids my progression as a point guard. Having him there, someone I can rely on no matter what, it’s truly a blessing.”
Cameron Boozer, on the other hand, discussed their distinct qualities.
“Anyone who knows us realizes we’re two distinct individuals,” Cameron said. “The more exposure we get, the clearer that will become.”
Both brothers have shown their skills at the high school level. They are expected to take their talents to higher levels in the future.
