But the 76ers made just enough plays to beat Chicago for the 12th straight time. 

It was tied at 109 after the Bulls' Nikola Vucevic made two foul shots with 1:10 left in the game. Embiid then missed two free throws after Patrick Williams fouled him away from the ball. 

Chicago's Alex Caruso grabbed the rebound, but LaVine missed a 19-footer. Embiid then nailed a 3 to give the Sixers a 112-109 lead with 18.1 seconds remaining.
