After Action Report
The Timberwolves survived the 76ers 97-96. Timberwolves' scorers couldn't be contained. Fresh off a statement win, the Timberwolves stayed locked in; the 76ers bent the defense out of shape from deep. Whispers of a 76ers locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's 76ers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Timberwolves · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
