The new-look Philadelphia 76ers kept their hot streak rolling Monday night, absolutely dominating the Chicago Bulls with a 126-107 win. This team is clearly for real, showing off that new roster chemistry everyone’s been talking about. They just steamrolled a Bulls squad that couldn’t keep up with the Sixers’ balanced attack.
Sixers’ Stars Are Dialed In
It’s all about Tyrese Maxey and Jaylen Brown right now for Philly. These guys are putting up insane numbers and truly fueling this hot start. Maxey went off for a huge double-double, dropping 26 points and dishing out 11 assists, plus he snagged 2 steals and blocked 2 shots. Talk about doing it all! Then you’ve got Jaylen Brown, who wasn’t far behind with his own monster double-double: 25 points and 11 rebounds, adding 5 assists and a steal for good measure.
And yeah, LeBron James is on the 76ers, and he’s still a force even if he wasn’t the top scorer. He put up 15 points, grabbed 7 boards, and handed out 9 assists. Joel Embiid was right there with him, also scoring 15 points and pulling down 8 rebounds. This team has so many weapons, it’s gotta be a nightmare for opposing defenses.
Bulls’ Rookie Shines, But It Wasn’t Enough
The Bulls tried to hang tough, and rookie Caleb Wilson showed some serious flashes. He led Chicago with 24 points, adding 7 rebounds, 4 assists, and an impressive 4 steals. The kid’s got game! Josh Giddey also put in work with a double-double of his own, tallying 13 points and 10 assists, along with 4 rebounds. But honestly, even with those strong individual efforts, they just couldn’t contain the Sixers’ depth and firepower. Philly was just too much for them on Monday.
This dominant win is a loud statement from the new-look 76ers. Their hot start to the 2026-27 season is no fluke, and with guys like Maxey and Brown leading the charge, supported by veterans like LeBron and Embiid, they’re looking like a serious problem. You gotta keep an eye on Philly, because they’re absolutely buzzing right now!
