The Chicago Bulls ended their six-game losing streak in emphatic fashion, dismantling the Philadelphia 76ers in a dominant performance on Monday night.
The game saw history made by Bulls guard Josh Giddey, who delivered a stat line never recorded before in the modern play-by-play era.
Giddey posted 17 points, 10 rebounds, five assists, three blocks, and one steal in the first half, becoming the only player since 1996-97 to reach those minimums by halftime.
He finished with 25 points, 16 rebounds, six assists, and three blocks, shooting 73% from the field, 100% from three, and 100% from the free-throw line.
The Bulls overwhelmed the 76ers, leading by as many as 50 points and handing Philadelphia its eighth straight loss.
Giddey’s third consecutive double-double also marked the longest such streak by a Bulls guard in over 30 years.
Chicago (27-34) will look to build on the win when they face the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday, while Philadelphia (31-30) aims to halt its slide against the Miami Heat.
