After Action Report
The Timberwolves took care of the Suns 98-86. The Suns couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Timberwolves. The Timberwolves owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Timberwolves couldn't shake the cold spell. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Timberwolves · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
