The Chicago Bulls defeated the Philadelphia 76ers 109–102 on December 26 at the United Center, holding the visitors below the Vegas total of 241.5 points in a defensive grind. Zach Collins and Jevon Carter each scored 15 points for Chicago, while Joel Embiid led Philadelphia with 31 points and Tyrese Maxey added 27, yet the 76ers' 37.6% shooting from the field proved insufficient. The Bulls made 14 three-pointers compared to Philadelphia's 11 and controlled the glass with 52 rebounds to 46, though both teams struggled offensively—Chicago shot 44.2% and posted a 113.5 offensive rating. The decisive stretch came in the fourth quarter, when Philadelphia managed only 17 points after scoring 33 in the third; Chicago's 28 fourth-quarter points sealed the outcome. Philadelphia's seven steals couldn't overcome a 31-assist performance by the Bulls, who limited turnovers to 11. The loss drops the 76ers further in the Eastern Conference playoff picture despite Embiid's scoring prowess.
