After Action Report

In Phoenix, the Suns survived the Timberwolves 111-106. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Second-chance points piled up for the Suns; Timberwolves' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Timberwolves · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
