2016 Cleveland Cavaliers NBA Championship Staff Ring. Labeled as the "most tortured sports city" by ESPN, Cleveland's curse was finally put to rest when Akron native LeBron James carried his team, and the entire city on his back, which propelled the Cavaliers to a dramatic 2016 NBA Finals victory over the powerhouse Warriors in seven games.

Presented here is an original ring that was given to a team employee by team owner Dan Gilbert for his/her contributions during that magical title run. Unlike the rings sold to fans, this size 11.25, 88-gram base metal beauty showcases the employee's last name (Brown Jr.) on one of the shanks.

A scattering of CZ's and colored stones are located on the top, and underneath the band, while the red stones signify the Cavs' Game 3, 5, 6 and 7 victories. Exhibiting NM quality throughout, it displays superbly.
