After Action Report
In Minnesota, the Suns buried the Timberwolves 116-87. Suns' starting five clicked while the Timberwolves looked disjointed. Suns' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Suns. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Never a doubt in this one.
