Basketball numbers have no special significance in and of themselves. The most important thing about basketball jersey numbers is that they make it easy for referees, coaches and spectators to distinguish players. Some jerseys are symbolized by some stars, such as Kobe 8 and White Chocolate 2, which are very familiar to everyone.The NBA requires jersey numbers from 0-99, and the CBA from 0-55.Internationally, it is stipulated that a team can't have players with duplicate jersey numbers. Players' numbers in international games are sorted by stature, and stature is sorted by height; so #4, #5, and #6 are usually guards, and #14 and #15 are usually centers.
