The Philadelphia 76ers are not moving to Center City, according to multiple sources including The Philadelphia Inquirer.
Instead, a new stadium will be built in the South Philadelphia sports complex.
94WIP hosts reacted to the news positively:
I'm convinced people who say things like this have never actually taken public transit or been to a Sixers game.

The Broad Street Line is a five minute walk from the WFC. There is nothing preventing anyone from taking Septa to a Sixers game in South Philly. https://t.co/WcHPzVuAvg
Glad that the Sixers are staying in South Philly. Also respect to the City Council members (specifically Nicolas O'Rourke) who voted against the downtown version the first place.
