    This question's been on my mind for a while.....once a team wins a championship, excatly who gets a ring?

    - the players (of course), but do players on the IR still get a ring?
    - the coach (of course), but do the assistant coaches?
    - GM? Owner? Anyone else?

    And do all those who get a ring, get a trophy? Or is the trophy only given to the team to display in the arena?

    Thanks in advance!

    I think I've heard that pretty much everyone in the organization gets a ring. I know the trainers definitely do. I'm also sure that the owner and GM get the rings.

    Probably everyone that the owner wants to buy a ring for gets a ring, wouldn't you think?

    Everybody gets a ring. I don't know about play-by-play and color guys, but I would assume so. The organization is allowed to give a ring to anyone they choose, if you're a player you get a ring, active or not. Jack Haley has a championship ring.

    Not an NBA example, but still...A good friend of mine has a son who worked part-time for the Angels last year. He got a ring. It wasn't the same ring the players got, but it was till pretty big.
