After Action Report

The Timberwolves squeaked past the Trail Blazers 114-111. Timberwolves' offense had its way with the Trail Blazers. Timberwolves' stars took over and bent the game to their will; Timberwolves' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Timberwolves per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
  • Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Trail Blazers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
