After Action Report
The Timberwolves buried the Raptors 131-87. The Timberwolves got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Timberwolves' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Raptors couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a Raptors locker-room rift aren't helping. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
