Game 4 of the New York Knicks vs. Philadelphia 76ers series will be played on Sunday, April 28, 2024 at 1 p.m. ET (10 a.m. ET). The game will air on ABC and stream on Sling TV and the platforms featured below.


How to watch the Knicks vs. 76ers game without cable

If your cable subscription doesn’t carry ABC or you’ve cut the cord with your cable company, you can watch the Knicks vs. 76ers game on the live TV streaming platforms featured below.

Save $25 on Sling TV: The most cost-effective way to stream the Knicks vs. 76ers game

If you don’t have cable TV that includes ABC, one of the most cost-effective ways to stream today’s game is through a subscription to Sling TV. To watch today’s game, you’ll need a subscription to the Blue tier, which includes access to your local network affiliate’s live feed (excluding CBS). To level up your coverage and get access to NBA playoff games broadcast on ESPN and TNT, subscribe to the Orange + Blue tier plan. Also worth noting: Sling TV comes with 50 hours of cloud-based DVR recording space included, perfect for recording today’s championship game.

The Blue tier is $45 per month. The Sling’s Orange + Blue tier costs $60 per month, but the platform is currently offering $25 off the first month of any pricing tier, making the Orange + Blue tier $35 for the first month.

There’s also an NBA playoffs package deal where you can save $30 when you pre-pay for three months of service on any tier. You can cancel anytime.

Note: Because Sling TV doesn’t carry CBS, you won’t be able to watch CBS-aired programming like next year’s NFL games on CBS. If you’re looking for one live TV streaming platform to watch all your favorite sports, we suggest a subscription to Hulu + Live TV.
