76ers Consider Camden Arena Amid Philly Stalemate

The Philadelphia 76ers are seriously considering relocating to Camden, New Jersey, as negotiations with Philadelphia city officials over a new arena have stalled. New Jersey has offered significant financial incentives, including up to $900 million in tax credits and the transfer of land at minimal cost, for the construction of a mixed-use development featuring a world-class arena. The proposed site in Camden is a former state prison near the Delaware River. The 76ers have been attempting to build a new arena in Philadelphia but face opposition from local communities, particularly Chinatown. With their lease at the Wells Fargo Center expiring in 2031, the team is running out of time to secure a new home. The move would be a major shift for the historic franchise, which has been in Philadelphia since 1963.
