76ers vs Bulls Prediction, Projected Score & Pick
Philadelphia 76ers at Chicago Bulls · Sun, Nov 8, 2026
HoopVantage's Nov 8, 2026 prediction: Philadelphia 76ers over the Bulls by 4.8 points, a 66% win probability, with a projected final of 76ers 118, Bulls 113 (total 231.5).
The model projects Philadelphia 76ers to win by 4.8 points (66% win probability), projected score CHI 113, PHI 118, total 231.5 (80% range 208–255). The largest driver is player on-court impact (2.9 points toward PHI).
Matchup
Philadelphia 76ers rank 13 of 30 in the HoopVantage power rating (+1.7 points against an average opponent, about 47 projected wins in 2026-27); Chicago Bulls rank 26 (−4.9, about 28 wins). On a neutral floor that gap is worth 6.6 points to Philadelphia 76ers; home court, rest, travel and the projected rotations move it to the 4.8-point margin above. A 66% win probability means Philadelphia 76ers should win about 7 of 10 games like this one, so the other side winning is a normal outcome, not an upset of the model.
