One of the top shooting guards in the state of Florida for the Class of 2028 will re-class into the upcoming senior class.
Camden Cooper, A 6-foot-7 shooting guard, has officially reclassified from the Class of 2028 to 2027, his father (Scott) confirmed with Southeast Hoops Report on Wednesday. He is also expected to announce his college commitment at some point this summer, his father added to the report.
Cooper has received offers from schools such as Florida A&M, Florida Atlantic, Florida State, Jacksonville, North Florida, Queens, Stetson, Texas A&M, UT-Martin, and Western Carolina.
The announcement comes during what has been an outstanding spring season so far, in which he is playing Grassroots basketball with Swift Sports, which is part of the New Balance/Prelude32 League. Through the early portion of the circuit, Cooper has emerged as one of the most productive scorers in the league, averaging nearly 20 points per game while consistently showcasing his ability to score at all three levels, create for teammates, and lead his team in high-level competition.
Cooper’s rise has been years in the making. A rare talent who began playing varsity basketball as a sixth grader, he has built one of the most impressive careers in recent memory. Over the course of his varsity career, Cooper has accumulated nearly 2,000 points, a milestone that reflects both his consistency and longevity against older competition.
Cooper spent the 2024-2025 season playing at St. John’s Country Day in the greater Jacksonville area, where he averaged 18.2 points, 3.9 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 2.3 steals per game during his freshman season. He had played with St. John’s Country Day, where he was a starter since he was in seventh grade, where he averaged 17.4 points and 3.7 rebounds per game for the Spartans.
He could also be well on his way to set the Northeast Florida career scoring record of Myron Anthony, who tallied 2,738 points at Fletcher between 1993 and 1997, although Anthony attained that mark in only four seasons before going on to play at the University of Kentucky.
College coaches have taken notice of Cooper’s production, maturity, and experience. His combination of scoring ability, basketball IQ, and proven track record against top competition has made him a highly sought-after prospect as he approaches his final decision.
With his school list now narrowed and his recruitment nearing its conclusion, all eyes will be on Cooper over the coming weeks.
