CeCe, whose real name is Cindy, looked stunning in a black dress as she gushed over her close knit family \u2014 including husband, Carlos Boozer, a 13-year NBA veteran, Cameron\u2019s twin brother and former Blue Devils teammate Cayden, and older brother, Carmani. <\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s really just faith over fear,\u201d CeCe said of Cameron\u2019s basketball journey thus far during an interview with ESPN\u2019s Lisa Salters. \u201cSo we battle that adversity as a family and now we get to celebrate as a family and be here to watch Cameron. I just couldn\u2019t be more proud.\u201d<\/p>\n

During the ESPN broadcast, Malika Andrews said Cameron Boozer told her that his mom would drive him to every single practice and tournament to help him find trainers and further his career.<\/p>\n

The 18-year-old Duke phenom preached the importance of family. <\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t even know how to describe it honestly, man. \u2026 It\u2019s my moment, but it\u2019s our moment as a family,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n

Boozer averaged 22.5 points, 10.2 rebounds and 4.1 assists while shooting 55.6 percent from the field and 39.1 percent from 3 in his lone season with Duke \u2014 helping propel the top-seeded Blue Devils to the Elite Eight, where they were stunned by No. 2 UConn 73-72 in March.<\/p>\n

Boozer Sr. was a two-time All-Star during his 13-year career and was also a member of the 2008 Olympics \u201cRedeem Team\u201d that won gold in Beijing, China.<\/p>\n
