Golden State Warriors (21-20) and Boston Celtics (29-13) will be in action for the 39th NBA edition of the Dr. Martin Luthar King Jr. Day. The Warriors defeated the Celtics 118-112 when they last played each other in regular season.

The Dubs are on a two-game winning streak, thanks to a fourth quarter surge over Washington Wizards in the previous game. Inconsistent shooting and regular injuries are giving a tough time to Steve Kerr.

On the flip note, Boston Celtics are coming off a 119-115 defeat to Atlanta Hawks and are 6-4 in the last 10 games. The reigning champions will have an edge over the short-handed Golden State Warriors, who have the second-highest win percentage on the MLK Day, with a 21-10 record in 31 games.

Here, we break down the key injuries for both teams and their potential impact on this clash.
