TORONTO --
If the next-level size of the Toronto Raptors' championship ring doesn't drop jaws
the eye-popping bling definitely will.
Canada's lone NBA team went big -- really, really big -- for the 2019 championship rings that were presented
to players Tuesday night before Toronto's regular-season opener against New Orleans.
"Everyone is going to be in shock," said Raptors guard Kyle Lowry, who was involved in the process.
"That's why I was happy about the ring and the design because legit everyone is going to be in awe."

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.
A personalized engraving is included on the inside of the ring, along with a ruby set inside a Maple Leaf.
The ring was produced by Windsor, Ont.,-based Baron Championship Rings,

A total of 74 diamonds -- representing the number of wins last season and in the playoffs
-- are included in the ring's face, which features the team's 'North' chevron logo, the Toronto skyline
and a 1.25-carat diamond on top of the Larry O'Brien championship trophy.
