Training-camp invitee Kenny Adeleke aimed to make a play for the basketball in practice Tuesday, but when he swung his arms, he hit guard Earl Watson's mouth, knocking out one front tooth. Coach Bob Hill spotted the loose tooth on the court and joked he should be paid a $5 finder's fee.

Watson hasn't decided if he'll play in the Sonics' exhibition opener tonight against Portland.

"He was hurting and wasn't going to play," said Hill of Watson's immediate reaction to the injury. "If he takes it off, it gives me a chance to play [reserve guards Milt] Palacio and [Mike] Wilks."
