Warriors coach Steve Kerr said: “I’m thrilled for Steph [Curry]. To me, this is his crowning achievement in what’s already been an incredible career.

“I’m obviously thrilled for everyone in that room, and a lot of people had a big hand in this, but the thing with Steph is, without him, none of this happens.”

The win for the Golden State Warriors will mark Curry’s fourth NBA ring, after bagging his previous three with the team in 2015, 2017 and 2018.

What is an NBA ring?

An NBA ring refers to the number of championships a National Basketball Association (NBA) player has under their belt.

The terminology comes from the fact that, usually, players from the team that has won the NBA Finals receive championship rings in honour of their contributions.

However, on a handful of occasions, the winning team has opted for other items instead of rings, like commemorative watches for example.

Who has the most NBA rings?

The player with the most number of championships is that of Bill Russell, an American former professional basketball player who played as the centre for the Boston Celtics from 1956 to 1969.

He was a five time NBA Most Valuable Player (MVP) recipient, a 12 time NBA All-Star and in 2009 the NBA renamed its NBA Finals’ Most Valuable Player trophy to the Bill Russell NBA Finals Most Valuable Player Award.

Russell has 11 championships, all of which he won with the Boston Celtics throughout this 13 year long career - 1957, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1962m 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966, 1968, 1969.

He bagged his first ring with the Boston Celtics in his rookie year, and his last two championships in 1968 and 1969 as player-coach.
