The NBA continues its tradition of honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy with eight games on Monday's slate. The Boston Celtics heading to the West Coast to face the Golden State Warriors.

The Celtics are still one of the top teams in the league, sitting second in the Eastern Conference. But Boston is currently struggling, with an 8-8 record over their past 16 games. Meanwhile, the Warriors have already won the first matchup of the season against Boston and Monday's matchup presents a great test for both teams.

In addition, a number of intriguing players should get increased opportunity with injuries impacting lineups. Both the Atlanta Hawks and Phoenix Suns have such scenarios on Monday's slate.
