After Action Report
The Lakers survived the Timberwolves 102-100. Lakers' offense had its way with the Timberwolves. Timberwolves' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Timberwolves came in with something to prove after a loss. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Timberwolves · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
