The Boston Celtics will be looking to extend their winning streak to six games when they take on the Sacramento Kings on Monday.
The Celtics have been in great form and are 9-1 over their last 10 games. The same cannot be said about the opposition, as the Kings are 3-7 over that same stretch and enter this game on a two-game losing streak.
With how tight the West is right now, the Kings cannot afford to slip up if they want to make it to the post-season. Currently, they are 9th with a 35-35 record.
The Celtics have been handed a fitness boost before the game against the Kings as Jrue Holiday is not on the injury report.

Holiday had missed the Celtics' last game, which was a 129-116 win against the Portland Trail Blazers.
Overall, Holiday has played in 54 of the Celtics' 71 games so far this season. He has been averaging 10.9 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 3.8 assists in 30.5 minutes per game.
There is no doubt that Holiday is an important part of this Celtics team. So, his availability against the Kings will come as a major boost.
That is especially true because the Celtics could be missing other players on the night. Al Horford has already been ruled out of the game against the Kings while Jaylen Brown has been listed as questionable.
