US EditionCoby White fuels fourth-quarter push as Bulls beat 76ers
Jalen Smith’s dunk and Coby White’s step-back 3-point shot fueled a 10-0 run as the Bulls matched a season-high five consecutive wins, sources said.
- On Friday night, the Chicago Bulls beat the Philadelphia 76ers 109-102, matching a season-high five-game win streak as Jalen Smith’s dunk on Joel Embiid sparked the late run, finished by Coby White’s step-back 3 and Tre Jones’ reverse layup.
- Philadelphia's cold perimeter shooting limited them to 3 of 15 three-pointers and 19 of 50 through the first two quarters, while Joel Embiid's right knee soreness reduced his mobility and defensive effectiveness.
- Chicago received 15-point efforts from Tre Jones and Zach Collins, while Coby White added 13 points for a balanced attack.
- The Bulls will host Milwaukee on Saturday after the win, while the Philadelphia 76ers travel to Oklahoma City on Sunday as they try to rebound from recent setbacks.
- Coach Nick Nurse has adjusted Embiid's usage, exploring limiting his exposure and using double-big lineups with Dominick Barlow to mask weaknesses as offensive support falters.
