Spurs vs Pacers Prediction, Odds, Picks, Spread for NBA Paris Games 2025.

The Indiana Pacers and San Antonio Spurs meet on Thursday afternoon in Paris, France for the first leg of an entertaining international battle. It’s time to continue with our NBA Paris odds series with Spurs-Pacers forecast and pick.

The star of the show will be French Victor Vembanyama. The 7-foot man quickly established himself as one of the best players in the NBA. Spurs are also improving as a team and all signs point to SA being a team to reckon with going forward. San Antonio is 19-22 on the season which puts them in 12th place in the Western Conference. They are 1.5 games behind the Golden State Warriors for the 11th seed and also 1.5 games behind the Phoenix Suns for the 10th seed. We could see SA in the Play-In tournament this season.

Indiana is figuring things out. After a rough start to the season, Indiana has won eight of its last 10 games to improve to 24-19 on the season. The Pacers are 5th in the Eastern Conference and are talented enough to make another run to the Eastern Conference Finals like they did last season. The Pacers beat the Philadelphia 76ers 115-102 in the final timeout.

These two will play again on Saturday, and the Spurs will be at home.

Why the Spurs could cover the spread/win

The Spurs will undoubtedly have home court advantage in this series. Wemba will have thousands of fans there to see him and he could feed off that energy like he did during the Paris Olympics. Wemba is the FanDuel favorite to win Defensive Player of the Year as well as at each individual bookmaker. Wemba is averaging 24.4 points, 10.8 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 1.1 steals and 4.0 blocks on the year. He’s also shooting 35.4% from deep which proves he can do it all. If Vembanjama plays well, Spurs will play well and feed off the loud energy from the arena.

Devin Vassell becomes a star in San Antonio as well. The 24-year-old is averaging 16.3 points, 3.8 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.4 steals per game. The former Florida State quarterback is picking up the pace on offense as he has scored 20+ in four straight games. Rookie Stephon Castle is emerging as a potential ROI candidate. He has 11.6 points, 3.6 assists and 0.5 steals per game.

San Antonio is 20-21 against the spread this season and 22-19 in over/under.

Why the Pacers could cover the spread/win

The Pacers are favored in this game, but not by much. The reason is that this team is hot right now. They have many weapons. Pascal Siakam is one of the more consistent scorers in the NBA. He shoots 52.3% from the floor and averages 20.1 points. He adds 7.3 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 0.7 steals per game. The leader of this team Tyrese Haliburton has 17.9 points, 3.6 rebounds, 8.8 assists (5th in the NBA), 0.8 blocks and 1.4 steals per game. Last time out against the Sixers, he scored just nine points. This time, he must find the net more often in the face of an elite defense.

The Pacers have five more averaging double-digit points. They don’t rely on one person to do the scoring load. Indiana is 1st in the NBA in scoring at 115.2 per game and 4th in field goal percentage at 49%. San Antonio is shooting just 45.5% and scoring just 111.6 points per game. San Antonio is 15th in points allowed which is right in the middle of the pack.

Indiana is 22-20-1 ATS and 22-19-2 in over/under. They have played in eight of their last nine games.

Final forecast and pick Spurs-Pacers

This will be an entertaining two-game series in Paris. I expect Spurs to turn up and compete as Wemba will be the talk of the weekend. However, the Pacers are hot and will win this game. There’s a chance they’ll split the series, but Indiana takes the first.
