Victor Wembanyama is heading home.

The 7-foot-4 phenom will get to play in his native France when the San Antonio Spurs battle the Indiana Pacers in the NBA Paris Games 2025.

Wembanyama will return to the city where he earned an Olympic silver medal for his home country this past summer. France faced off against Team USA in the gold medal game in August, with the Americans winning 98-87 to secure their fifth straight Olympic gold.

On the other side, the Pacers are red-hot heading to Paris. Tyrese Haliburton — a gold medalist for Team USA at the 2024 Olympics — and Co. have won eight of their nine games in the new year and will now look to spoil Wembanyama's homecoming.
