The Toronto Raptors enjoyed one last celebration of their 2019 title on Tuesday night.

TORONTO -- If the next-level size of the Toronto Raptors' championship ring doesn't drop jaws, the eye-popping bling definitely will.

"Everyone is going to be in shock," said Raptors guard Kyle Lowry, who was involved in the decision-making process. "That's why I was happy about the ring and the design because legit everyone is going to be in awe." There are over 650 diamonds -- at a weight of 14 carats -- in the 14-karat yellow gold ring, which is the largest NBA championship ring ever made, the team said.

The outer edge features 16 rubies along with jersey numbers from the team roster. The ring shoulder has the individual player name and jersey number -- surrounded by diamonds, of course -- with 'World Champions," '2019,' and the league and team logos on the other shoulder.
