After Action Report
The Timberwolves ran roughshod over the Hornets 120-89. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Timberwolves cashed in. Timberwolves' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
