How to Watch Serbia-France
Victor Wembanyama has been named captain of the French national basketball team ahead of their exhibition matches against Serbia. The games will be broadcast in the U.S. via the Courtside 1891 service on DAZN.
Why it matters
Wembanyama's new leadership role and international appearances are significant for global basketball fans and the NBA's international profile.
San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama is back in a France uniform Thursday, August 20, with a particularly demanding first assignment: Nikola Jokic and Serbia.
Serbia and France tip off at 2 p.m. ET (11 a.m. PT) from Belgrade Arena. In the United States, the game can be streamed through Courtside 1891 on DAZN.
The exhibition is worth more to Spurs fans than another offseason matchup between two NBA superstars. It will be Wembanyama’s first appearance for France since the 2024 Paris Olympics, and his first game since being named captain of the French national team.
