After Action Report

The Timberwolves ran roughshod over the Kings 121-85. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Timberwolves cashed in. The Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Timberwolves' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Kings · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
