The Sixers had no problem beating the Chicago Bulls, 115-101, on Australian heritage night at the Wells Fargo Center, improving to 23-21 on the season.
On a night when Ben Simmons, Joel Embiid, and Dario Saric were all named as members of the NBA’s Rising Stars game that will take part during the all-star festivities on Feb. 16, the trio showed exactly why they deserved the selections.
The three combined for 62 of the Sixers points and each had standout moments.
Simmons already had double-double in the early minutes of the second quarter, and clearly had no intentions of letting up.
