After Action Report
The SuperSonics survived the Timberwolves 96-95. Ugly basketball, but the SuperSonics did just enough. The SuperSonics came in with something to prove after a loss; Timberwolves' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Whispers of a Timberwolves locker-room rift aren't helping. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- SuperSonics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
