Substitute Jewison Bennett’s fierce near-post shot stung the palms of Kaminski late on before Hedges almost scored a goal-of-the-season contender with the last kick of the game only for his 40-yard strike to hit a post. In an even game, Jon Dahl Tomasson’s men did what they are becoming accustomed to doing and put their opponents to the sword with a display of clinical finishing, exemplified by Brereton Diaz’s magnificent opener from Blackburn’s first shot on target for his eighth goal of the season.

SAN FRANCISCO – The Golden State Warriors received their 2021-22 NBA championship rings during a special pregame ceremony Tuesday during Champions Ring ...

Next month, the Warriors Community Foundation and Chase will launch a Championship Ring Sweepstakes, offering Warriors fans a chance to win an authentic 2021-22 NBA championship ring. Additional features on the sides of the ring include seven championship trophies to represent the franchise’s seven NBA championships, the team’s “Just Us” mantra, and more. [approximately 16 carats](https://www.nba.com/warriors/photos/warriors-2022-championship-rings) of yellow and white diamonds set into yellow gold to represent the team’s 16 wins during the 2022 NBA playoffs, marking the first time a championship ring has been made up primarily of yellow diamonds.

The Warriors' 2022 championship rings, which were presented to the team, coaches and front-office members ahead of the Warriors' regular-season opener Tuesday ...

The ring is made up of seven carats of yellow diamonds -- a rare gem that the jewelers of Jason of Beverly Hills scoured for months to find. It was a long haul, but all part of the journey that led to this title, which makes it really special." On the other is the organization's seven Larry O'Brien Trophies displayed. And similar to how their 2015 ring resembled Oracle Arena -- with the old building's recognizable X's on its windows around the outside of the ring -- this year's has imagery of Chase Center's exterior in the same spot. The individualized custom feature, Lacob says, came from a desire to honor the four core players -- Curry, Lacob estimates he saw around 20 versions of various parts of the ring before settling on the final design. The Warriors wanted to give a nod to that championship that kicked off their dynasty seven years prior. But what it really is, is the physical manifestation of the journey. There are .91 carats of white diamonds on the inner bezel to honor the team's 91% home winning percentage in the postseason. Even after they made the Finals, ESPN's Basketball Power Index gave them just a 14% chance to win the title. But, like most any other championship ring, there is far more symbolism present than just the number of carats. "Make sure it's over the top," read another, according to Arasheben, who runs Los Angeles-based jewelry house Jason of Beverly Hills.

The Warriors received their 2022 NBA championship rings on Tuesday night and they certainly did not disappoint.

"Seven carats of yellow cushion cut diamonds on the bezel represent the team’s seven championships, while 43 baguettes in the bridge represent Stephen Curry’s 43-point performance in Game 4 of the NBA Finals."
