The Chicago Bulls are back in action with a matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers. Chicago already holds a 1–0 edge in the season series, having earned a two-point win on November 4 as part of a 6–1 start. Fast forward to the day after Christmas, and the Bulls sit at 14–15 but enter the contest riding a four-game winning streak.
Chicago’s recent success isn’t coming out of nowhere. The Bulls have gotten healthy at the perfect time, fielding a roster free of notable injuries and minute restrictions for just the second time this season. They’re in a fortunate spot as they prepare to face a team dealing with nearly the same situation.
