It's a near-lock that all four Celtics make the final roster for Team USA at the FIBA World Cup, and it looks like they got new jersey numbers for the upcoming tournament. 

As wonderful as their training camp numbers were, international rules only permit players to wear numbers 1-15. Kemba Walker gets to wear his No. 15, the number he wore in college and for much of his NBA career. No. 15 is obviously retired for Tommy Heinsohn in Boston, so he'll wear No. 8 for the Celtics this fall. 

Jayson Tatum went with No. 10 after sporting No. 34 during training camp, while Marcus Smart chose Jaylen Brown's No. 7 for himself. Brown took No. 9.

The last members of Team USA to wear these numbers are:
