Daily News | Sixers’ sixth consecutive playoff berth remains on hold after 109-105 double-overtime loss to Bulls
As one of the league’s top teams for much of the season, the 76ers expect to do much more than reach the playoffs. They’re one of the contenders for the NBA title.
The MVP candidate finished with game highs of 37 points and 16 rebounds and three blocks before fouling out with 3 minutes, 54 seconds left in double-overtime. Eighteen of his points came in the third quarter. Zach LaVine led the Bulls with 26 points, while DeMar DeRozan added 25. Nic Vucevic had 21 points, 12 rebounds and four steals.The game went into double-overtime after DeRozan misfired on a three-pointer before the overtime buzzer.
The 7-foot-2, 280-pounder’s basketball IQ, combined with an understanding of angles and his ability to get fouled stands out the most to Bulls coach Billy Donovan.
