The ring features 56 stones on one side alone to represent how long the Warriors have been in the Bay amongst other features.

Showing off the jewellery on Twitter, the Warriors wrote: “The team side of the ring has 56 stones to represent the number of years the Warriors have been in the Bay.

“Twisting off the top of the ring reveals the slogan ‘Strength in Numbers’.

“The top of the ring is reversible, a first for a championship ring.

“The 74 sapphires and diamonds on each side signify the wins in the regular season and playoffs.

“The Warriors’ four 2018 postseason series record are featured on the sides of the ring (4-1, 4-1, 4-3, 4-0).”

Steve Kerr’s Warriors were given the unique bling moments before their 108-100 win over a Russell Westbrook-less Thunder in Oakland.

In a brief address to the crowd, key man Curry said: “Last year was an unbelievable journey. Let’s celebrate this to the fullest.”

And after the win the sharpshooting superstar added: “Obviously, we’re still trying to go for more so it’s really hard in terms of putting it all into perspective.

“But nights like tonight are where you really kind of sit back and feel really proud about what we’ve accomplished.

“I know where we’ve been. I don’t think I’ll ever be at a point where it’s just kind of a blah moment.

“Just seeing the ring and seeing the banner come down and seeing all those trophies.

“If that ever happens, I hope somebody just slaps me in the face, smack some sense into me, because this is a special opportunity we have every night.

“We get to play basketball, we get to go chase a trophy, chase a championship. That will never get old.”

The whole roster, including Klay Thompson, Kevin Durant and Draymond Green were given a commemorative ring – the franchise’s third NBA title win in four seasons.
