James Harden didn’t play in the Sixers’ loss to the Heat on Saturday (reportedly scheduled maintenance), though he’s back for Monday night’s tilt with the Bulls as the team looks to go 5-0 with him in the lineup.
Chicago has stumbled out of the All-Star break and is hoping to avoid their 5th straight loss as the club travels to Philadelphia.
