Seattle point guard Earl Watson has played perhaps his best half of the season, as Seattle trails by a point at halftime, 49-48.
Watson finished with 13 points, six assists and six rebounds and just one turnover in the opening half, and could be on his way to a triple-double if he gets enough minutes in the second half.
After a so-so start Seattle played better defensive in the second half and did a better job of attacking the basket.
Along with Watson, Chris Wilcox finished with 10 points.
Ron Artest leads Sacramento with 17 points, and Seattle native Spencer Hawes had a nice run in the first half, scoring six straight points for the Kings to open the second quarter.
It's the third straight game between these two teams that's been close. If the Sonics continue to push the ball and attack they've got a shot to get a rare road win, which would break the Sonics current, 14-game losing streak on the road
