After Action Report

The Hornets blew the doors off the Timberwolves 88-68. Ugly basketball, but the Hornets did just enough. The Hornets came in with something to prove after a loss; shots just aren't falling for the Timberwolves lately. The Timberwolves looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Timberwolves · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
