After Action Report
In Minnesota, the Wizards shocked the Timberwolves 116-101. The Wizards got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Wizards couldn't shake the cold spell; the Wizards bent the defense out of shape from deep. Wizards' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
