After Action Report
The Rockets shocked the Timberwolves 126-124. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. The Rockets played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Timberwolves owned the glass, generating extra possessions. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Rockets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
