It’s Wemby Week in Paris as San Antonio Spurs, Indiana Pacers plays pair of games
San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama wears a t-shirt in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. as he warms up before a game against the Miami Heat on Jan. 19, 2025, in Miami.“It’s going to be a big crowd against us, honestly,” Indiana guard Andrew Nembhard said.
There have been single games in Paris in each of the past two seasons – Chicago-Detroit in 2023, Brooklyn-Cleveland last year – but this season, it’s a two-game trip and Wembanyama is surely one of the reasons for that. “I couldn’t come back to the capital without giving you the opportunity to come see me play,” he wrote on social media.
France played host to the Paris Games last summer and Wembanyama helped his home country get to the gold-medal game against the U.S. He was spectacular in the final, scoring 26 points. It wasn’t enough, not with Stephen Curry leading the way with 24 for the Americans – capped by a barrage of four three-pointers in the final couple of minutes to clinch the gold.
