After Action Report

The Timberwolves blew the doors off the Hornets 109-89. Every possession went the Timberwolves way. The Timberwolves sent shots into the fifth row all night; the Timberwolves ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
  • Timberwolves · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Hornets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
