After Action Report

The Timberwolves knocked off the Nuggets 121-107. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Timberwolves cashed in. Timberwolves' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Timberwolves 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. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Nuggets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Nuggets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
