New Jersey officials are reportedly putting on a full-court press to lure the Sixers to the Garden State amid a stalled plan to build an arena in Center City.

Why it matters: The team is determined to leave its long-time South Philly home for a new downtown arena expected to open in 2031.

Sixers co-owner David Adelman has said there's "no Plan B."

Yes, but: It turns out Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment, which owns the Sixers and New Jersey Devils, has for the last two months been discussing a plan with New Jersey officials to relocate the team to Camden, as first reported by roi-nj.com.

The team already has a practice facility there.

Axios Philadelphia wants to know if you'd still support the 76ers if the team moved to Camden.
