Duke's freshman sensation, Cameron Boozer, is making waves in the ACC, snagging his ninth Rookie of the Week honor this season. This accolade comes after a standout performance that saw him average 20 points, 11 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and a block per game, all while shooting a scorching 70% from the field.
During Duke's impressive 2-0 week, Boozer's talents were on full display. He was pivotal in their victory over the top-ranked Michigan, contributing 18 points, 10 rebounds, seven assists, and two blocks, earning him the game MVP honors. Earlier in the week, he notched 22 points and 12 rebounds against Syracuse, showcasing his knack for double-doubles-bringing his season total to 15.
Boozer's achievements are part of a broader trend for Duke, which has seen its players earn ACC Rookie of the Week honors 108 times in the last 12 seasons. That's nearly half the time, with 28 different Blue Devils claiming the spotlight.
Looking ahead, Duke, sitting at No. 1 with a 25-2 record, is gearing up to face Notre Dame in South Bend. Fans can catch the action on ESPN at 7 p.m. as the Blue Devils aim to continue their dominant run in the ACC.
