The Atlanta Hawks (32-26) and Boston Celtics (38-21) face off in a potential playoff series preview on Monday night. Here’s how you can watch the game online.

Having gone toe-to-toe in last season’s playoffs and faced each other in a number of hard-fought games of late, the Atlanta Hawks and Boston Celtics are carving out a new chapter in the franchises’ long-running rivalry that should make Monday’s meeting between the two teams a must-watch.

The game, which starts at 7.30 p.m. ET, will be shown on Fox Sports Southeast for those watching in the Greater Atlanta area and Georgia. In Greater Boston and Massachusetts the game will be available on CSNNE HD. As the game hasn’t been picked up by any national broadcaster, it will also be available to stream online for those with NBA League Pass subscriptions who live outside of blackout areas.

The Hawks travel to Boston having lost three straight games, and notably having returned from the All-Star Break with consecutive blowout losses to teams who currently rank outside of the playoff places. At 32-26, Atlanta is still locked in to the fifth spot in the playoff race, but having remained committed to their current group at the trade deadline they’re in desperate need of regaining momentum for the stretch run.

The Celtics will come into this game on the second night of a back-to-back, having picked up a six-point win on the road in Detroit on Sunday. After an unconvincing start to the season, Boston has looked increasingly assured over the past couple of months. With wins in seven of their last ten games, the Celtics have opened up some daylight between themselves and the chasing pack below, as only Cleveland can claim an Eastern Conference record better than their 38-21 right now.

This will be only the second meeting between the two teams this season, with the Celtics having edged a nail-biter by just two points in Atlanta back in January. A storyline worth watching out for is how Al Horford performs against his former team for the first time in the city he now calls home.
