CLEVELAND, Ohio -- You were watching the Cavaliers' ring ceremony Tuesday night and thought to yourself, "Geez, I sure would like to wear one of those."
Now you can. Sort of. The Cavaliers Team Shop and Kay Jewelers are selling several replica versions of the championship rings including one for $11,999.
<pWhile not exactly like the ones the players received, because come on, it's not like you nailed a three-pointer with 53 seconds to go or chased down and blocked Andre Iguodala's shot, the premium deluxe championship ring, available at the team shop, is blingy enough to impress your friends. Designed by the same company that made the real ones, it features 10-carat white and 14-carat yellow gold with 3.5-carat diamonds. - CLICK HERE to read full story.

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio -- There is a "great chance" Iman Shumpert plays in the Cavs' first road game Friday night despite still being in the league's concussion protocol, coach Tyronn Lue said Thursday.
Shumpert was on the court during the portion of Cleveland's practice open to the media, though Lue said he remained in the protocol after suffering a head injury in the third quarter of the Cavs' season-opening 117-88 win over the Knicks on opening night.
The Cavs flew to Toronto after practice to play the Raptors Friday.
"He practiced today, got through practice," Lue said. "Still doing the protocol but there is a great chance he plays tomorrow so we're happy about that." - CLICK HERE to read full story.
