Philadelphia 76ers vs Chicago Bulls Final Score & Over/Under Result — Nov 4, 2025

The first quarter set the tone for an offensive showcase that gradually strangled itself. Chicago and Philadelphia combined for 72 points in the opening frame—a blistering pace that proved unsustainable. Tyrese Maxey led Philadelphia's early charge with 39 points, 5 rebounds, and 5 assists, while Josh Giddey orchestrated the Bulls' response with 29 points, 15 rebounds, and 12 assists. But the tempo collapsed after halftime. Combined scoring dropped to 48 in the third quarter and 45 in the fourth, as defenses tightened and fatigue set in. The 76ers managed just 36 points across the final two quarters, allowing Chicago to escape with a 113–111 victory despite being outpaced for large stretches.

Philadelphia's first-half dominance—45 points in Q1 alone—gave way to a defensive grind. Joel Embiid added 20 points and 6 rebounds, and Kelly Oubre Jr. chipped in 18 points, but the 76ers couldn't sustain their offensive rhythm. The Bulls, buoyed by Nikola Vučević's 19 points and 10 rebounds and Isaac Okoro's 16 points, leaned on their steadier approach: 27, 29, 28, and 29 points per quarter. The second half proved decisive. Combined scoring fell from a first-half total of 131 to just 93 in the final 24 minutes, a 38-point swing that ultimately favored Chicago's consistency. The game finished at 224 combined points—a decline that reflected both teams' deceleration and made for a tighter, lower-scoring finish than the opening suggested.
