Yahoo Sports: A Winning Way to Stay in the Game

Although not the first regular season games to be held internationally, this week's NBA games in Paris hold a special significance for French basketball prodigy Victor Wembanyama. Representing the NBA in his home country for the first time, Wembanyama will take to the court as the San Antonio Spurs go head-to-head with the Indiana Pacers in two highly anticipated matches on Thursday and Saturday. With both games set to take place at the prestigious Accor Arena, which played host to several gymnastics events and the gold medal basketball games during the 2024 Paris Olympics, spectators can expect an unforgettable experience.
