After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Timberwolves pulled away from the Hornets 98-85. Ugly basketball, but the Timberwolves did just enough. Timberwolves' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Timberwolves bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Timberwolves per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
