After Action Report

The Timberwolves squeaked past the SuperSonics 104-102. Ugly basketball, but the Timberwolves did just enough. Timberwolves' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Timberwolves' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
