The NBA and La Française des Jeux (FDJ), one of the top sports betting organizations in Europe and the operator of the French national lottery, have extended their collaboration in a multi-year contract. This agreement solidifies FDJ’s standing as the NBA’s Official Partner in France through its ParionsSport online brand. Furthermore, ParionsSport en ligne is now an Associate Partner for the NBA Paris Games 2025 Presented by Tissot, which will take place at Accor Arena in Paris on January 23 and 25 and feature the Indiana Pacers and San Antonio Spurs.
With this expanded partnership, ParionsSport en ligne will offer French fans exclusive opportunities, such as tickets to NBA games in both the U.S. and Paris. Fans can also look forward to attending “NBA Viewing Party” events across various French cities throughout the 2024-25 season, organized by ParionsSport en ligne, where they can engage with other NBA fans and enjoy live games in a social setting.
Further elevating the experience, ParionsSport en ligne is now the “Presenting Partner” of the NBA Fantasy – Salary Cap game in France.

Top-performing players can win impressive prizes, including a trip to watch the NBA Finals live.
