In the National Basketball Association (NBA), a championship ring is awarded to members of the team that win the annual NBA Finals.[1][2] Rings are presented to the team's players, coaches, and members of the executive-front office.[3] The Boston Celtics have the most rings in NBA history, winning the finals 18 times. Phil Jackson is the coach with the most championship rings, and Bill Russell has the most as an NBA player (11 each).[4]

History

NBA championship rings have been awarded since the first NBA Finals in 1947.[5] In the modern era, the rings are handed to the defending champions during the team's first home game each season.[6][7]

Design

NBA championship rings are silver or gold and include the following features:

  • Team name and symbol
  • Year the team won the championship
  • Player name[8]
  • NBA logo [9]
  • "World Champions"[9]
