The Philadelphia 76ers Training Complex and Corporate Offices is a 125,000-square-foot Training Complex and office building, which is the largest in the NBA. The Complex houses the team training center and corporate offices. It was opened in September 2016.

Previously, the team practiced at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, in Bala Cynwyd, while business-side operations were located at The Navy Yard, in South Philadelphia. This is the first completely owned training complex the organization has ever had. And the design was key to have the practice facility and operations in the same complex.

In 2012 the Philadelphia 76ers were looking for a new training facility. It took two more years to find a location for the project. In 2015 the organization found a property at the Camden Waterfront and started construction in 2015.

The complex has two full-size or regulation NBA courts with 12 baskets. The courts are available for players and coaches use at any time. Also the building has it own players restaurant with its own full menu, along a private balcony and film and press room. A 2,800-square-foot player locker room, and state-of-the-art performance, wellness, recovery, and hydrotherapy room with recovery pool. A fully operational gym and lifting or rehab center. Coaches and players film and conference rooms.
