November 28, 2016
Sacramento at Washington 7:00 PM ET
The Sacramento Kings opened a long road trip with an easy win and will try to remain hot when they visit the Washington Wizards on Monday. The Kings have won three of their last four overall after posting a 122-105 victory at Brooklyn on Sunday, with DeMarcus Cousins going for 37 points.
Philadelphia at Toronto 7:30 PM ET
The Toronto Raptors return from a lengthy road trip to begin their longest homestand of the season Monday against the Philadelphia 76ers. The Raptors, who will play six in a row at Air Canada Centre, capped a 3-2 trip with a 105-99 win at Milwaukee on Friday, riding another quality performance from DeMar DeRozan (26 points).
Oklahoma City at New York 7:30 PM ET
Russell Westbrook is the most exciting player in the NBA right now, and his historic stat lines are dragging the Oklahoma City Thunder into the win column. Westbrook will try to post his third straight triple-double and lead the Thunder to a third straight win when they visit the New York Knicks on Monday.
Boston at Miami 7:30 PM ET
The Boston Celtics are a different team with Al Horford in the lineup, but they still have some work to do to reach elite status. The Celtics will try to bounce back from a loss to one of those elite teams when they head back on the road for a one-stop trip against the Miami Heat on Monday.
Charlotte at Memphis 8:00 PM ET
The Charlotte Hornets were looking for a spark from anyone on their roster and found it from reserve guard Jeremy Lamb on Saturday. Lamb will try to follow up an 18-point, 17-rebound performance when the Hornets visit the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday.
Utah at Minnesota 8:00 PM ET
The Minnesota Timberwolves' evolution into a defensive powerhouse under coach Tom Thibodeau remains a work in progress. The Timberwolves will get a look at what a cohesive defensive unit looks like when they host the Utah Jazz on Monday.
Atlanta at Golden State 10:30 PM ET
The Golden State Warriors won without standout forward Draymond Green last time out and may have to do it again when they host the struggling Atlanta Hawks on Monday night. Green missed Saturday’s 115-102 triumph against Minnesota with a left ankle contusion and is questionable for the matchup with the Hawks as the Warriors go after their 12th consecutive victory.
