After Action Report

The Jazz ran roughshod over the Timberwolves 136-113. Jazz's scorers couldn't be contained. Second-chance points piled up for the Timberwolves; Timberwolves' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. The Timberwolves rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Timberwolves · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
