On Sunday afternoon, the Philadelphia 76ers are hosting the Boston Celtics in Pennsylvania for Game 4 of their second-round playoff series. 

For the game, the two teams have finalized their injury reports and starting lineups.

The Celtics have ruled out Danilo Gallinari, while Jaylen Brown, Blake Griffin and Marcus Smart have all been upgraded to available.    

Meanwhile, the 76ers have upgraded Joel Embiid to available, and no one else is on their injury report (he's in the starting lineup).

Via Underdog NBA: "Lineup alert: Sixers will start Harden, Maxey, Harris, Tucker, Embiid on Sunday."

The Celtics have a 2-1 lead in the series after winning each of the last two games by double-digits.  

In Game 3 on Friday night, the Celtics won 114-102 (in Philadelphia) and Jayson Tatum led the way with 27 points, ten rebounds and five assists (Embiid had 30 points and 13 rebounds for the 76ers). 

If the Celtics can get a win on Sunday, they will take a 3-1 lead in the series back to Boston for Game 5 on Tuesday night.

James Harden led the 76ers to a victory in Game 1 with 45 points, but he has struggled in a big way over each of the last two games.
