It’s the NBA event of the week for French basketball fans. Since Monday and until this weekend, the prestigious North American league is setting up shop in Paris for two official regular season meetings between the Indiana Pacers and the San Antonio Spurs. The floor of the first leg, this Thursday evening, will be in the colors of the Pacers, franchise of the Eastern Conference (5th with a record of 24 wins for 19 losses). The return floor on Saturday will be in the colors of Spurs, a Western franchise (12th with a record of 19 defeats for 22 victories).
Victor Wembanyama’s team will look to bounce back after a series of three losses. On his land, the French pivot (24.4 points, 10.8 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 4 blocks on average this season) will want to shine against the Pacers. On March 3, 2024, during his last game against the Indiana franchise, “Wemby” scored 31 points, took 12 rebounds, distributed 6 assists and blocked 6 times. One of his best matches of the rookie season.
The match between the Indiana Pacers and the San Antonio Spurs will take place this Thursday at 8 p.m. at the Accor Arena. The meeting will be followed live on Canal + (unencrypted) and on beIN Sports 1.
