After Action Report
The Timberwolves survived the Raptors 97-93. Ugly basketball, but the Timberwolves did just enough. Timberwolves' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; fresh off a statement win, the Raptors stayed locked in. The Timberwolves bench chemistry carried them. The Timberwolves rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
