Notes: Sonics Coach Nate McMillan said he is "looking to change" the center spot. McMillan may start 7-foot-1 Jerome James to give the Sonics a little more size against the Warriors' 6-11 center Erick Dampier. ... the Sonics have lost three in a row, including a 97-91 loss Friday to Chicago, the team with the worst record in the NBA. ... After tonight, the Sonics play just one more game — tomorrow at home against Phoenix — before the All-Star Game break. ... Warriors F Antawn Jamison is averaging 23 points over the past 18 games. ... Danny Fortson is averaging a double-double on the season. At 6-8, Fortson is ranked second in the NBA in rebounding at 12.5 boards per game. ... The Warriors have lost five straight at home to the Sonics and 10 straight overall. Golden State has lost 14 of its past 16 games.
