After Action Report

The Timberwolves pulled away from the Kings 122-110. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Timberwolves cashed in. The Timberwolves owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Kings bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

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