Dazmon Jaroid Cameron (born January 15, 1997) is an American professional baseball outfielder for the Norfolk Tides, in the Baltimore Orioles organization. He attended Eagle's Landing Christian Academy in McDonough, Georgia, and was selected by the Houston Astros in the 2015 MLB draft. The Astros traded Cameron to the Detroit Tigers in 2017 and he made his MLB debut in 2020. His father is former All-Star outfielder Mike Cameron.

Early life and amateur career
Cameron is the oldest of four children born to JaBreka and Mike Cameron. Mike played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for eight teams over seventeen seasons. His father began to instruct him on how to play baseball when he was 13 years old.

Cameron attended Eagle's Landing Christian Academy in McDonough, Georgia, where he played for the school's baseball team. As a freshman, he had a .392 batting average. He improved his power in his sophomore year, finishing the season with a .434 batting average, a .764 slugging percentage, seven home runs, and 28 runs batted in (RBIs) in 106 at bats. He committed to enrolling at Florida State University on a college baseball scholarship, to play for the Florida State Seminoles.

In the summer of 2014, Cameron was a member of the USA Baseball's 18-and-under national team, competing against other nations from the Pan American Baseball Confederation. He also appeared in the 2013 and 2014 Under Armour All-America Baseball Game. As a senior in 2015, Cameron had a .455 average with eight home runs and 32 RBIs, and was chosen as Georgia's Gatorade Player of the Year.

Professional career
Cameron was considered a potential first overall draft pick in the 2015 MLB draft; however, he fell into the competitive lottery pick round because of rumored high contract demands.
