After Action Report

The Timberwolves rolled past the Raptors 129-88. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Timberwolves cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Timberwolves; the Timberwolves played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. The Timberwolves rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Garbage time started early.
