In a battle of the benches, the Philadelphia 76ers topped the Chicago Bulls, 125-109. Jonathon Simmons led the Sixers in scoring with 20 points. T.J. McConnell tied his career-high with 18 points on 9-of-10 shooting, and Zhaire Smith shattered his career high with 17 points.
Boban Marjanovic made two 3-point shots, doubling his total career makes. Local heroes Ryan Arcidiacono and Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot each chipped in 14 points for the Bulls, but the Sixers won comfortably, going up by as much as 33 in the second half.
The Sixers’ usual starters didn’t play, but that doesn’t mean they didn’t make highlights.
