After Action Report

The Kings snuck past the Timberwolves 112-111. Execution down the stretch made the difference. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Kings; Timberwolves' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Kings' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Timberwolves · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Kings · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
