The 2023-24 season is already over for the San Antonio Spurs, but much excitement of course looms for the future. With Victor Wembanyama at the helm of the Spurs' ship, high-level basketball is on the way and the future will only continue to grow brighter.

It has never been clearer that Wemby is on his way to becoming one of the faces of this league in no time. So the NBA announcing on Monday that San Antonio will be taking part in the NBA Paris Games during the 2024-25 season should come as a surprise to no one.

This was obviously a no-brainer to invite the Spurs, seeing as Victor hails from Paris. Sending him and the Spurs back to his home country and city will be an excellent way to showcase both his individual talent and the NBA game to an international audience.

Time:

Official time is yet to be announced, but the games are likely to occur in the evening in Paris, meaning that they would tip off closer to the early afternoon in San Antonio time.

Date:

The two games will take place on Thursday, January 23 and Saturday, January 25, 2025.

How to watch:

TV information is yet to be announced, but the two contests are likely to be featured on national television given the draw of Wemby playing in his home country.

All you need to know:

The Spurs will be tipping off against the Indiana Pacers in two consecutive contests in Paris next January. It will mark the first time the NBA has scheduled two regular season games in the city in the same season.

As part of the NBA's international series of games, these two contests will count as regular season games and will contribute toward the final standings like any other game. As such, there will be no games played between the Spurs and Pacers in the United States in 2024-25, with this doubleheader taking the place of the games normally played in San Antonio and Indianapolis.

San Antonio will match up with a Pacers squad that is currently one win from the Eastern Conference Semifinals in the 2024 playoffs, and the games will look to have a very competitive atmosphere.
