The Chicago Bulls delivered the biggest comeback of the 2025-26 NBA regular season on Tuesday. Chicago once trailed the Philadelphia 76ers 65-41 with four minutes and 50 seconds left in the first half. Then Chicago came all the way back and outscored Philadelphia 72-46 over the next 28 minutes and 50 seconds left in the game for a 113-111 victory.
This was the third biggest comeback in Bulls franchise history. Chicago has come back from a 25 point deficit twice. Chicago was once down 70-45 to the Charlotte Bobcats on November 2, 2005 before they won 109-105. Then on February 17, 2021, the Bulls were down 59-34 to the Detroit Pistons, before they won 105-102.
The Bulls are the second NBA team this season to comeback from a 20 point deficit. The Phoenix Suns were trailing the Sacramento Kings 64-44 on October 22 before they won 120-116.
