After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Lakers squeaked past the Timberwolves 123-121. Lakers' offense had its way with the Timberwolves. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Lakers. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Lakers · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
- Lakers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Timberwolves · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
