After Action Report
The Lakers handled the Timberwolves 114-101. Lakers' offense had its way with the Timberwolves. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; the Lakers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Lakers bench chemistry carried them. Style points be damned.
What tipped it

- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Lakers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
