A meeting with the Indiana Pacers in Paris on Thursday afternoon might just end up feeling like a home game for the San Antonio Spurs. Plenty of fans at Accor Arena will be rooting for Frenchman Victor Wembanyama,

The Pacers will likely have to contend with a crowd that will be rooting for the Spurs in both games. With Victor Wembanyama playing in his home country, most fans will be rooting for him and San Antonio. Indiana still feels good about their chances to win both games. They have been playing too well not to be filled with a ton of confidence.

The high octane glitz of NBA basketball will descend on Paris on Thursday night as the San Antonio Spurs - who feature the French star Victor Wembanyama - take on the Indiana Pacers in the first of two regular season games.

Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs will face the Indiana Pacers in the NBA's 4th and 5th regular-season games in Paris.

From a 13-point deficit to a 27-point lead, the Miami Heat took down the San Antonio Spurs, 128-107, in Kaseya Center on Sunday. Opening the NBA Sundays schedule, the team coached by Erik Spoelstra, sitting inside the Play-In zone of the Eastern Conference, snapped a three-game losing streak and improved to 21-20 in the Regular Season.

Before the Spurs drafted Wembanyama No. 1 in 2023, they selected a Frenchman named Tony Parker with the No. 28 pick in 2001.

The week is essentially going to be a celebration of France’s own Victor Wembanyama, San Antonio’s reigning NBA Rookie of the Year.
