FIBA’s biggest tournament will feature many former Celtics players, some of whom lived in Boston as recently as 2022. Six countries will have Celtics alumni don their country’s jerseys in this year’s FIBA World Cup, and many of those players will play major roles in their team’s quest for a gold medal.
