After Action Report
The Timberwolves rolled past the Mavericks 135-115. The Timberwolves got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Timberwolves carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Timberwolves' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
