LeBron James and the Philadelphia 76ers improved to 7-1 to start the 2026-27 season with a 126-107 win over the Chicago Bulls on Monday night. During the third quarter, James chased an outlet pass into the stands, collided with a fan holding a cup of wine, and took a sip before returning to the court.
Post-Game Explanation
After the game, James said he spilled some of the fan's wine on his arm and wanted to see if it was worth it. "It was aight. It was aight," he told The Athletic. James finished with 15 points, nine assists, and seven rebounds in 31 minutes.
Balanced Attack
Tyrese Maxey led the 76ers with 26 points and 11 assists, Jaylen Brown added 25 points and 11 rebounds, and VJ Edgecombe contributed 21 points as Philadelphia's star-studded lineup continued to overwhelm opponents.
