Haason Reddick Faces $2 Million in Fines as Holdout Threatens Jets' Week 1 Plans

Haason Reddick, a key defensive asset for the New York Jets, remains in a holdout as the team prepares for their Week 1 opener against the San Francisco 49ers.

Duke's basketball program has secured a significant victory with the commitment of twin brothers Cameron Boozer and Cayden Boozer, two of the top prospects in the 2025 recruiting class. Under the leadership of head coach Jon Scheyer, the Blue Devils have been dominant on the recruiting trail, and landing the Boozer brothers further solidifies their elite status.

Cameron and Cayden Boozer: Elite Prospects

The Boozer twins, sons of former Duke star and NBA All-Star Carlos Boozer, bring high-level talent to Durham. Cameron Boozer, ranked No. 2 in the 2025 class, is a 6'9" forward with a diverse skill set. His high basketball IQ and ability to impact games on both ends of the court make him a prized recruit. He has been called the best outlet passer since Kevin Love, according to scouting reports, and boasts impressive ball-handling for his size. Cameron’s junior year numbers are equally eye-catching: he averaged 24.5 points and 13.4 rebounds per game in the EYBL circuit.

Cayden Boozer, ranked No. 21, plays the point guard position and excels in both playmaking and defense. Standing at 6'4", Cayden has shown elite passing ability, leading the U17 World Cup in assists with 6.4 per game. His physicality and court vision make him a strong backcourt presence, and he's expected to be a key facilitator for Duke from day one.

A Family Legacy at Duke

The Boozer brothers’ commitment to Duke carries deep familial significance, as their father, Carlos Boozer, was an integral part of Duke’s 2001 National Championship team before launching a successful NBA career. Following in their father’s footsteps, Cameron and Cayden's decision to commit to the Blue Devils strengthens the family legacy at Duke and boosts the program’s reputation on the recruiting front.

Duke's 2025 Recruiting Class

With the Boozer twins as the first two commits in Duke’s 2025 recruiting class, Jon Scheyer continues to dominate in recruiting. Under Scheyer, Duke has landed 11 top-25 players since 2022, including Cooper Flagg (No. 1, 2024) and Khaman Maluach (No. 4, 2024)(

Landing the Boozer brothers was crucial for Duke, as the program faced stiff competition from Miami and Florida. The twins visited Duke’s campus during their official visits, notably before the Blue Devils’ matchup against Arizona in November 2023, which sealed their decision.

What’s Next for Duke?

With the Boozer twins now committed, Duke’s attention turns to other top prospects. Scheyer and his staff are in strong contention for other highly ranked recruits, including Koa Peat (No. 6) and Shelton Henderson (No. 15). Securing a top-ranked class in 2025 is well within reach, as Duke remains one of the most attractive destinations for elite basketball talent(\
