After Action Report

The Timberwolves blew the doors off the Suns 117-85. The Suns had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Timberwolves couldn't shake the cold spell; Timberwolves' outside barrage was a constant threat. Whispers of a Suns locker-room rift aren't helping. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Suns · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Timberwolves · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
