After Action Report
The Timberwolves snuck past the Rockets 104-102. The Timberwolves won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Timberwolves carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Timberwolves' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
