James' performance followed an eight-point outing in the team's previous loss to Cleveland.
Jaylen Brown led the way for the Sixers with 29 points, while Tyrese Maxey added 27. Joel Embiid grabbed 10 rebounds for the Sixers. Philadelphia took an early lead in the second quarter and maintained their control throughout the game, although Chicago narrowed the gap in the final minutes. James emphasized the team's composure in late-game situations, stating, "We understand that we got to get stops on this end, but if teams make a run, we understand how to be calm on the other end as well."
