The Philadelphia 76ers have recorded their best start to an NBA season in 25 years after defeating the Chicago Bulls 127-121 on Sunday to improve their record to 9-2.

The victory marks Philadelphia's strongest opening 11-game run since the 2000-01 season, with Tyrese Maxey once again leading the team's impressive performances.

Maxey finished with 27 points, four rebounds and seven assists, including three three-pointers, as the 76ers secured their ninth victory of the campaign.

The contest was closely fought, with Chicago maintaining pressure throughout the game. However, Philadelphia's offensive strength proved decisive as the visitors held on to claim a six-point victory.

Joel Embiid provided valuable support, recording 18 points, 10 rebounds and five assists, alongside two steals to help the 76ers maintain their advantage.

Elsewhere, Jaylen Brown delivered an impressive performance with 29 points, seven rebounds and four assists, while LeBron James contributed 22 points, five rebounds and five assists.

Philadelphia's latest victory further highlights the team's strong early-season form, with Maxey continuing to play a central role as the 76ers seek to establish themselves among the NBA's leading contenders.
