After Action Report
In Utah, the Jazz shocked the Timberwolves 136-106. The Timberwolves had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Jazz bent the defense out of shape from deep; the Timberwolves owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Jazz rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
