Two Boston Celtics stars chosen as newest captains of Team USA

The news came out yesterday that USA head coach Gregg Popovich has selected his team captains for the FIBA World Cup in China this fall, and Celtics fans couldn't be happier.

Kemba Walker, Donovan Mitchell, and MARCUS SMART are the Team USA captains. So, don't expect Smart to get cut when Gregg Popovich sends one last guy home.

The first of the three captains is the Celtics' newest All-NBA point guard Kemba Walker, who has been the leader on this roster since the training camp started a few weeks back.
