The games on January 23rd and 25th will mark the first time the NBA has held two regular-season games in the French capital in the same season. The NBA did not disclose venues for the games.
Wembanyama was the first overall pick in last year's NBA Draft and is the clear favourite to be named rookie of the year after averaging 21.4 points, 10.6 rebounds, 3.9 assists and a league-high 3.6 blocks per game this season.
The Pacers, who will be playing their first games in France, have a roster that currently features 2024 All-Star Tyrese Haliburton as well as former NBA champion and twice All-Star Pascal Siakam.
"The return of the San Antonio Spurs and Victor Wembanyama to Paris to face Tyrese Haliburton and the Indiana Pacers will be a landmark moment for the growth of basketball in Europe," NBA Deputy Commissioner Mark Tatum said in a news release.
