After Action Report
The SuperSonics outlasted the Timberwolves 110-98. Ugly basketball, but the SuperSonics did just enough. The SuperSonics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Timberwolves couldn't shake the cold spell. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- SuperSonics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
