Breaking down the top 5 NBA games on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, featuring a primetime Western Conference clash

The second key date is Martin Luther King Jr. Day as the league always makes sure to not only celebrate such an important figure in American history but also to have a full days schedule that features key games among the league’s best.
This year’s MLK Day features 11 games including five games that will be televised on either NBA TV or TNT. It’s always an action-packed day that brings plenty of intrigue.
