After Action Report
In Minnesota, the Trail Blazers blew the doors off the Timberwolves 123-96. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. The Trail Blazers couldn't shake the cold spell; Trail Blazers' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Trail Blazers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
