After Action Report

The Timberwolves buried the Lakers 115-95. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Timberwolves cashed in. Shots just aren't falling for the Timberwolves lately; Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Lakers · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
  • Lakers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
