Drake loves to win.
The Toronto rapper recently won the championship in the league for the second year in a row, and now he’s celebrating in a big way. In an Instagram Story, Champagne Papi showed off a massive championship ring which reportedly costs about $100,000. “Better luck next year,” he wrote over the image.
Drake enlisted Jason of Beverly Hills to help create the massive diamond-studded rings for the championship team. Jason did the rings last year as well, but those were only for $50,000. Twice the championships, twice the price. In 2019, Jason of Beverly Hills also did a $150,000 ring for Drake to commemorate the Raptors championship. That ring had more diamonds than any other in NBA history, with over 30 carats total.
This year’s championship ring is a bit more modest. It features 15 carats of diamonds, with two large ones in its center to highlight the two back-to-back wins.
“As someone who wishes I could play ball professionally I respect Drake for making his dream a reality with his own league,” Jason Arasheben said. “We always have a good time when we work together and it has been fun working on these championship rings with him the last three years.”
The designer went on to add, “Drake had a clear vision of what he wanted and we worked really well together to make that happen. I enjoy the challenge of telling the story of the season and incorporating everything into the design and onto a ring, while still using as many diamonds as possible.”
