Philadelphia - Chicago 98: 103
The Bulls opened the season amazingly, but a big victory for the Siskers put the two on the same balance (2: 6) and made everyone stop and look at another hot team in the league, which as usual showed that they are doing great without Ben Simmons.
Joel Ambide finished with 18 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists, Seth Kerry led with 22 points.
The Bulls still managed to come back from a 15-yard deficit in the second half, but the rise in the crucial moments arranged for the Sixers the big win at home.
Damar Drusen shelled out 37 points in the guest ranks, Zack Lavine added 27 but as mentioned it did not help the Bulls who despite the loss, still look like serious candidates for a long long run this season.

Golden State - Charlotte 92: 114
Steph Kerry did not provide his big evening and finished with only 15 points, 9 assists and 8 rebounds, but the one who did did it was Jordan Paul who bombed 31 points, including 7 threes (career record).
In the first half, the teams were only one point behind the Warriors, but they finished the second half with a 21-point margin that gave them the victory.
Now, Golden State is on a 1: 6 balance and stands at the top of the West along with Utah.
Miles Bridges of the Hornets led the game scoring list with 32 points and nine rebounds.
Gordon Hayward added 23 and 11 rebounds of his own.
