The Philadelphia 76ers and Chicago Bulls will continue its best-of-seven series Sunday, as both squads face off at the Wells Fargo Center at 1 p.m. ET on ABC. The Sixers are looking to take a commanding 3-1 series lead over the top-seeded Bulls, who're reeling from injuries to their star player Derrick Rose and forward Joakim Noah.
Rose tore his ACL at the end of Game 1, while Noah, who was averaging 15 points and nine rebounds in the series, injured his ankle and is doubtful to play Sunday.
Meanwhile, the No. 8-seeded Sixers are taking advantage of their new-found luck, as they've won two straight since the injury of Rose, and when Noah left Friday's Game 3 they went on a 18-2 run that propelled them to a five-point victory.
So far, Philly is being led by Jrue Holiday's 19.7 points per game, and the solid play of Evan Turner (15.7 ppg and 6.3 rebounds per game).
To catch Game 4, here's the viewing information:
Location: Wells Fargo Center, Philadelphia, Pa.
Game Time: 1 p.m. ET
TV information: ABC
