PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Dwyane Wade had 32 points and 10 rebounds, LeBron James finished with 24 points and 15 boards and the Miami Heat took a 3-0 lead in their first-round series against the Philadelphia 76ers with a 100-94 victory Thursday night.

Chris Bosh scored 19 points for the Heat, who rallied from an early 10-point deficit to move within one win of a sweep of the Eastern Conference series.

Game 4 is Sunday in Philadelphia.

James hit the court hard late in the fourth quarter and briefly sat against the scorer’s table. He grimaced when his teammates pulled him up and he slowly walked back to Miami’s bench.

Elton Brand had 21 points and 11 rebounds for the 76ers.
