After Action Report
The Timberwolves held off the Clippers 101-95. Timberwolves controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Fresh off a statement win, the Timberwolves stayed locked in; the Timberwolves pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Clippers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
