The San Antonio Spurs will return to the international stage next season with two regular-season games against the New Orleans Pelicans.
The teams are scheduled to play on Jan. 14 in Paris, followed by a second matchup on Jan. 17 in Manchester, England. The games will continue the NBA’s efforts to expand its global presence through marquee regular-season contests outside North America.
For the Spurs, the trip marks another high-profile appearance abroad, with the franchise set to play in France again. San Antonio’s matchup with New Orleans will also bring two Western Conference teams to European audiences during the heart of the regular-season schedule.
The Pelicans will join the Spurs for both games, creating a rare midseason international series between the same opponents in separate cities. Further scheduling details, including tipoff times and broadcast information, are expected to be part of the league’s broader schedule release.
