At Sacramento, California, Bobby Jackson scored a career-high 31 points and Doug Christie had a season-high 25 as the short-handed Kings improved to 8-0 at home.

Rockets 83, SuperSonics 72

At Seattle, Steve Francis scored 13 of his 21 points in the third quarter for Houston.

The SuperSonics have lost six of seven after opening the season 8-2. It spoiled a milestone night for point guard Gary Payton, who became the franchise leader with 964 regular-season games, passing Fred Brown (1971-84).
