In Minnesota, the Cavaliers pulled away from the Timberwolves 103-88. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Cavaliers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Cavaliers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Cavaliers bench chemistry carried them. The Cavaliers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
