Ahead of their season opener against the Los Angeles Lakers, the Golden State Warriors unveiled their championship banners and rings.

The Warriors team is defined by their resilience, the NBA commissioner said during the ceremony.

Stephen Curry stood to the side and cheered as his teammates received their rings. The chants of "MVP" broke out as he walked towards center court.

Curry said to hold up. There are some other things we have to do before that.

He said it was a very special night. It's been a very long journey since Game 6 in 2019.

Curry wished a happy birthday to the Phoenix Mercury player, who is 32 years old. The man has been held in Russia for over a month.

The speakers played Drake's "Big Rings" as the Warriors raised their seventh championship banner.

Klay Thompson said he wouldn't be able to sleep on Monday because of Tuesday's celebrations. Jonathan Kuminga forgot ring night was going on.

Juan Toscano- Anderson was the first to get his ring. According to Toscano, he purchased courtside seats for his mother to watch the game.

The Golden State center was excited about the ceremony, but he had some butterflies because it was his first season opener since his first year in the league. There was still a game to be played.

Steve Kerr said before the game that it would be fun and emotional.
