Rashard Lewis did not play in last nights trouncing of the Golden State Warriors due to tendonitis in his left knee.

?I have to go with Mike (Shimensky, the team?s trainer) and Rashard, what they are telling me about how Rashard feels, and he felt like he needed to take (Friday night) and then try and get ready for Sunday?s game,? Sonics coach Nate McMillan said. ?So that?s what we?ll do.?

The tendonitis began last week and it did not help that he suffered a quadriceps bruise on Tuesday night.
