After Action Report

The Timberwolves outlasted the Hawks 96-80. The Hawks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Timberwolves. Shots just aren't falling for the Timberwolves lately; the Timberwolves bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hawks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Hawks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
