The Bulls (5 - 1) extended their winning streak to four games with Friday’s 118 - 116 win over the 76ers (0 - 6). Playing without Derrick Rose (ankles), Jimmy Butler led the way for Chicago. The Marquette product had 15 points in the first half, finishing with 23 to go with seven rebounds and five assists. It was Mike Dunleavy, however, who led in scoring, pouring in 27 points on 9 - of - 15 shooting, including 5 - of - 8 from three - point range. Kirk Heinrich added 13 points and seven assists, while Taj Gibson chipped in 11 points off the bench. Pau Gasol had a 17 - point, 12 - rebound double - double. Philadelphia, which shot over 47 percent from the field, trailed by 16 entering the final period. Chicago maintained the lead throughout the fourth but the Sixers would mount a furious comeback late. Down nine with 36 seconds remaining, Philadelphia got hot from beyond the arc, as Chris Johnson and Hollis Thompson combined to hit three consecutive three - pointers, cutting the Chicago lead to just one with five seconds to play. Kirk Hinrich hit a pair of free throws to extend it to three with two seconds remaining, and a K.J. McDaniels heave at the buzzer fell well short of the rim. The Sixers, whose last two losses have come by a combined five points, were paced by another strong performance by Tony Wroten. Filling in as the starting point guard for Michael Carter-Williams (shoulder), Wroten finished with 31 points but shot just 11 - of - 27 from the field. Thompson chipped in 21 points, while Henry Sims added 16 and eight rebounds. Nerlens Noel did not play after injuring his ankle against Orlando on Wednesday. Up next, the Sixers head to Toronto to take on the Raptors on Sunday evening. Chicago, meanwhile, travels back home to host the Celtics on Saturday.
