After Action Report
The Timberwolves handled the Cavaliers 110-96. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Timberwolves cashed in. Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Cavaliers.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Cavaliers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
