The majority of players drafted in the NBA never even win a single championship!

When it comes to NBA history, only 18 players have secured precisely four NBA titles, while 26 players have more than four championships. These individuals have chiselled their names on basketball, making it challenging to rank them without considering their additional stats, honours, and accomplishments. The following players stand out as the epitome of excellence in the sport.

LeBron James

Among those who have secured four NBA championships, one player stands out remarkably: LeBron James. His unparalleled dominance has spanned an impressive 21 seasons, surpassing any other player in NBA history! Throughout his illustrious career, James has shattered numerous NBA records, firmly establishing himself as one of the greatest of all time. James' four NBA titles were earned with three different franchises, proving his versatility and impact across various teams. From 2011 to 2014, he propelled the Miami Heat to four consecutive NBA Finals, clinching back-to-back championships in 2012 and 2013 while earning Finals MVP accolades. In a historic upset in 2016, James guided the Cleveland Cavaliers to their maiden NBA championship, defeating the formidable 73-9 Golden State Warriors. Since the 2018-19 season, James has donned the Los Angeles Lakers jersey, adding another NBA championship and Finals MVP trophy to his illustrious career in 2020. Notably, he holds the NBA's all-time scoring record and stands alongside a select few players to have secured at least four MVP awards. Additionally, James is one of just two players to have won four or more Finals MVP awards.

Shaquille O'Neal 

Shaquille O'Neal emerged as the dominant contender in the hierarchy of NBA greats, securing four NBA championships and boasting an impressive 4-2 record in NBA Finals appearances. Renowned for his dominance, particularly during his tenure with the Los Angeles Lakers in the late 1990s and early 2000s, O'Neal redefined the role of the big man in basketball history. During the peak of his career from 2000 to 2002, O'Neal's unmatched talent led the Lakers to three consecutive NBA titles, earning him the sole MVP award of his career along with all three Finals MVP distinctions. His on-court dominance was undeniable, as reflected in his staggering Finals averages of 33.6 points, 14.1 rebounds, and 2.4 blocks per game, illustrating his impact on the game. In 2006, O'Neal secured his fourth NBA championship with the Miami Heat, albeit in a different phase of his career. Despite not matching his earlier peak, his influence was pivotal in guiding the Heat to their inaugural franchise championship victory.

Stephen Curry

Ranked third among players with four NBA championship titles is Stephen Curry. Since joining the Warriors in 2009, Curry has stamped his play style on basketball, setting records and ushering in the era of the three-point shot. Curry's impact was evident in 2015, when he clinched his first MVP award and guided the Warriors to their first championship in over three decades. The following season, he made history by becoming the NBA's first unanimous MVP while leading the Warriors to a record-breaking 73-win season. In 2017 and 2018, Curry played a pivotal role in securing back-to-back championships against the Cleveland Cavaliers, birthing the Warriors' dynasty from 2015 to 2018. However, Curry's crowning achievement came in 2022, when he delivered his finest performance yet. In a compelling six-game series against the Boston Celtics, Curry earned his first Finals MVP award, averaging an impressive 31.2 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 5.0 assists per game with remarkable shooting efficiency.

Some players who barely missed this list are greats like Tony Parker, who won four championships with the Spurs along with a Finals MVP, and Klay Thompson, who is the second-best scorer in the Golden State Warriors Dynasty.
