Overview
- Players received the rings during an on-court, nationally televised ceremony before the season opener against the Houston Rockets, with NBA Commissioner Adam Silver in attendance.
- The pieces feature more than 800 custom-cut, hand-set gemstones in 14-karat gold, with “NBA CHAMPIONS,” the Larry O’Brien Trophy, and 100 diamonds on the face.
- The ring top opens to a removable inner band engraved with each player’s signature and jersey number in diamonds, bordered by 94 diamonds and wrapped with every teammate’s number.
- The outer-palm side honors the Oklahoma City National Memorial, engraving the Gate of Time between two sapphires that evoke the Reflecting Pool, while the interior includes the state motto “labor omnia vincit.”
- The Champions Collective, a new Jostens division, manufactured the rings, and the night’s celebration continued with banner-raising and a double-overtime win; a Zo Frost collaboration was reported by Heavy.
