The current recession has raised doubts about a planned basketball arena at Cal Expo in Sacramento.

"There is not a developer I know in the country who would do it, especially in today's economy," John Semcken, vice president of sports stadium builder Majestic Realty Co., told the Sacramento Bee.

Majestic was one of four developers consulted by Cal Expo and the NBA about the viability of their plan.

Even if the economy improves, Semcken said last week, that the initial plan appears risky. It calls for a developer to front money for the project.

Regardless, the Kings remain optimistic.
