After Action Report
The Timberwolves rolled past the Hornets 104-83. Ugly basketball, but the Timberwolves did just enough. The Timberwolves carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Timberwolves' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. The Timberwolves rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It broke open after the break.
