After Action Report
The Timberwolves squeaked past the Cavaliers 110-107. Every possession went the Timberwolves way. The Timberwolves played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Timberwolves' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a Cavaliers locker-room rift aren't helping. The Timberwolves rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.

- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Timberwolves · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
