Seattle coach Bob Hill bet Chris Wilcox he couldn't pull down a career high in rebounds again. Instead of rebounds, Wilcox focused on scoring Wednesday night. A night after collecting a career-high 19 rebounds, Wilcox scored a career-best 30 points, leading the SuperSonics over the Milwaukee Bucks 114-105.

Spurs beat Sonics, stay game up on Mavs
Tony Parker had 27 points and nine assists, and the San Antonio Spurs increased their lead in the Western Conference to one game by beating the Seattle SuperSonics 104-95 Tuesday night.
San Antonio (60-18) recorded a 60-win season for the third time in franchise history, the last coming when the Spurs won the NBA title in the 2002-03 season.
The Spurs lead Dallas by a game for the best record and the top seed in the West.
