After Action Report
The Timberwolves squeaked past the Magic 104-102. The Timberwolves won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Timberwolves' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
