The first-place Philadelphia 76ers (9-2) return home Tuesday to face the second-place Boston Celtics (8-2) for the first time this season. Tipoff is set for 8 p.m. EST at Xfinity Mobile Arena.

The Sixers won 127-121 on Sunday afternoon in Chicago. Philadelphia grabbed a season-high 54 rebounds, including 20 offensive boards, led by Jabari Walker’s 11 rebounds in 19 minutes off the bench. Walker added nine points.

Former Celtic Jaylen Brown led all scorers with 29 points (11-22 FG, 2-6 3FG, 5-8 FT) as the Sixers’ starters combined for 109 points in the victory. Tyrese Maxey scored 27 points (9-16 FG, 3-7 3FG, 6-6 FT), while LeBron James posted a season-high 22 points (8-16 FG, 2-5 3FG, 4-5 FT).

A perfect 8-0 in clutch-time games this season, the Sixers' eight clutch wins are two more than any other team.

The Celtics are coming off a 117-97 victory Sunday in Milwaukee despite trailing by 14 points early in the game. Former Sixer Paul George scored a game-high-tying 27 points (11-18 FG, 5-10 3FG), while Jayson Tatum added 21 points (6-19 FG, 5-11 3FG, 4-4 FT) in three quarters.

The Sixers acquired the five-time All-Star and two-time All-NBA selection Brown from the Celtics in July in exchange for George, two first-round picks and two second-round picks.

Boston also signed veteran point guard Mike Conley and former Knicks center Mitchell Robinson during the offseason after a first-round playoff exit against the Sixers.
