After Action Report
The Timberwolves handled the Lakers 117-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Timberwolves cashed in. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Lakers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Timberwolves bench chemistry carried them.
