After Action Report

The Jazz fended off the Timberwolves 100-92. The Jazz won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Timberwolves' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Timberwolves' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. Jazz's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
