(Sports Network) - The Seattle SuperSonics try and halt a four-game losing streak tonight against the Washington Wizards at the Verizon Center. The Sonics are last in the Northwest Division and dropped a 107-101 decision to the Chicago Bulls on Friday at KeyArena. Ray Allen had a game-high 29 points for the Sonics, who have lost five of six. Nick Collison contributed 20 points and 12 boards, while Damien Wilkins finished with 18 points. Seattle will hit the road for two games and is 4-18 away from the Emerald City this season. Meanwhile, the Southeast Division-leading Wizards have lost two in a row and will continue a four-game homestand. Washington lost the opener on Saturday versus the Los Angeles Lakers. Gilbert Arenas recorded 37 points and DeShawn Stevenson contributed 17 points in the loss. Caron Butler tallied 15 points and 10 rebounds for Washington, which owns an 18-5 record at home this season. Washington will also host San Antonio and Portland on the homestand. Monday's showdown between Seattle and Washington is the first of the season. Both teams split a pair of meetings last season, while the Sonics snapped a four-game skid in the series on December 19, 2005. Seattle has lost three straight in D.C.
