After Action Report
The Timberwolves pulled away from the Hornets 100-81. Ugly basketball, but the Timberwolves did just enough. Timberwolves' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Survive-and-advance type win.
