Camden played only four minutes in his freshman season for the Tigers, ultimately redshirting before entering the Transfer Portal in the postseason.

He was a three-star prospect and the No. 121 overall player in the nation (No. 27 small forward) as a recruit, but couldn't see the court over a number of upperclassmen, in addition to two classmates: five-star Emoni Bates and four-star Josh Minott. Camden initially chose Memphis over Miami, Indiana, Nebraska, and Virginia Tech. The Hokies will get him the second time around, fortunately.

Camden was known as a shot-making wing with size to make an impact defensively out of high school, and with a year in college, his game is unlikely to have changed much - though it's possible he's a little rusty, if more physically prepared for the college game.
