After Action Report

In Minnesota, the 76ers took care of the Timberwolves 116-99. 76ers torched the Timberwolves on the offensive end. 76ers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; 76ers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a Timberwolves locker-room rift aren't helping. The 76ers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
