In the world of college basketball, talent is never in question when it comes to Duke's Cameron and Cayden Boozer. But recently, these twin standouts took their skills off the court and onto the screen, starring in a State Farm commercial titled "Will You Be There."
The ad sets up a humorous scene where the Boozer brothers find themselves in a bit of a fender bender, their SUV having collided with a fire hydrant. Water gushes dramatically over their heads as they stand face-to-face, each trying to pin the blame on the other. Watching the playful sibling rivalry unfold is none other than “Jake from State Farm,” played by actor Kevin Miles, a familiar face in State Farm's lineup of commercials.
For Cameron and Cayden, this was a first - their debut in a national advertisement. When asked about their acting chops, the friendly banter continued.
Cam confidently claimed, “Me, obviously,” as the superior actor. Cayden, not missing a beat, shot back, “I’m the best.”
The lighthearted exchange was filled with brotherly competitiveness, with Cam insisting, “He’s lying,” and Cayden retorting, “That’s ridiculous.”
Cayden wrapped up the playful debate with a laugh, saying, “I just have that swag. I always take pride in trying to be better at something, so obviously I’m a better actor and we can call it a day.”
The commercial wraps up with both brothers exclaiming, “You call Dad!” referring to their father, former Duke star Carlos Boozer. The situation is humorously resolved when the tow truck driver steps in, saying, “I’ll call dad.”
This entertaining ad first aired during the NCAA Selection Sunday broadcast and will continue to be part of the NCAA Tournament coverage. It’s a fun reminder that while the Boozer twins are serious talents on the court, they’re not afraid to show a lighter side off it.
