Philadelphia is 6-1, with a 3-1 home record and a 3-0 road record. The latest result was a 109-104 win at Charlotte. Maxey scored 38 points while James and Embiid sat out. Brown returned from left knee soreness and supplied 16 points.
The scoring has come from several places around Maxey. Simons followed his 21-point night against New York with 19 points off the bench at Charlotte. James had 20 points, nine rebounds and eight assists against the Knicks. Philadelphia won that game 98-93 after James supplied a late basket and a tip-in.
Nick Nurse has adjusted the frontcourt as availability changes. Bona started at Charlotte, Walker handled most of the reserve center work, and Wade played center in a smaller group. Those options remain relevant with Embiid questionable for Chicago. Barlow is out with a low-back stress reaction, and Hukporti remains out after a season-ending right Achilles tear.
Brown arrived by trade, while James, Simons and Wade signed in the offseason. James is absent from the current injury report after missing Charlotte. Tonight's starting lineup is not confirmed. The published projection has Wade at center, subject to Embiid's availability.
