Boston Celtics 134, Chicago Bulls 99 — The Boston Celtics put together a dominant 134-99 home victory over the Chicago Bulls on October 27, 2026, using a first-half offensive explosion to turn the game into a rout. Jayson Tatum scored 30 points, Jaylen Brown added 28, and Boston’s defense suffocated Chicago after the opening quarter.

Chicago struggled to keep pace. Coby White led the Bulls with 21 points, and Josh Giddey finished with 15 points, eight rebounds and seven assists, but the visitors had no answer for Boston’s defensive pressure. The Celtics forced 17 turnovers and converted them into 26 points.
Key moments

Tactical story
Boston’s spacing was the story. The Celtics repeatedly pulled Chicago’s big men away from the basket, opening driving lanes for Tatum and Brown. When the Bulls collapsed, Boston made the extra pass and found open shooters. Defensively, the Celtics switched aggressively and limited Chicago’s clean looks from beyond the arc.
Season impact
The blowout sends an early message that Boston remains one of the NBA’s most complete teams. For Chicago, the loss highlights the gap between a young, rebuilding roster and a championship contender. The Bulls will need better half-court execution and more resistance on the perimeter to compete against elite Eastern Conference opponents.
