When it comes to ranking the nation's best high school basketball players in the class of 2025, there's a clear top two: Cameron Boozer and Cooper Flagg

The highly-touted forwards are arguably the two best players in the country, regardless of class, and the debate over who deserves to hold the No. 1 ranking will likely continue to rage until their high school careers end. 

On Sunday, the young stars will face off for the second time this week in the championship game of Nike EYBL's Peach Jam E16 division. 

Boozer and NightRydas Elite punched their ticket to the finals with a 95-82 win Saturday over Russell Westbrook's Team WhyNot. Flagg and Maine United, meanwhile, defeated Team Griffin by a score of 70-57 in the semifinals.

The consensus top two rising juniors have dominated the headlines from South Carolina this week, putting up video game numbers on a daily basis. 

In the first Peach Jam meeting between Maine United and NightRydas Elite, a pool play game Wednesday which Maine won 73-65, Flagg posted 21 points, 10 rebounds, seven assists and two blocks. Boozer finished with 22 points and 12 rebounds in the loss.

The next day, Flagg nearly posted a quadruple-double with 38 points, 16 rebounds, 12 blocks and six assists. The Montverde Academy (Florida) standout is top three in Peach Jam's E16 division in points (26.7), rebounds (13.2), blocks (7.7) and assists (5.5) per game.

Boozer, who led Columbus (Florida) to back-to-back state championships as a freshman and sophomore, has averaged 17.2 points, 11.7 rebounds and 5.3 assists through six games at Peach Jam. 

Unless the Florida powerhouses Montverde Academy and Columbus meet up during the 2023-24 high school season, this might be the last matchup between Flagg and Boozer for an extended period of time. 

Here is how you can watch Flagg vs. Boozer in the Peach Jam finals:
