After Action Report
The Spurs demolished the Timberwolves 122-101. Spurs controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Spurs answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Spurs' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Garbage time started early.

- Spurs · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- 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.
