No one questions their basketball talent.
But as actors?
Duke’s Cameron and Cayden Boozer recently took part in a State Farm commercial titled “WIll You Be There.” There has been a parking accident, their SUV ramming over a fire hydrant – the water spewing high over their heads – as the two stand nose to nose discussing who was responsible.
Watching but not refereeing in the 30-second ad is “Jake of State Farm.” That’s actor Kevin Miles, who appears in several State Farm spots. For the Boozers, it was a first and the first national advertisement for the twin brothers.
Asked Wednesday who was the better actor, Cam said, “Me, obviously.”
To which Cayden countered: “I’m the best.”
Cam: “He’s lying.”
Cayden: “That’s ridiculous.”
Cayden laughed, adding, “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 ad ends with the brothers both shouting “You call Dad!” – that being former Duke star Carlos Boozer – before the wrecker driver settles it by saying, “I’ll call dad.”
The ad was first shown during the NCAA Selection Sunday telecast and will continue through the NCAA Tournament.
