After Action Report

In a track meet, the Hornets squeaked past the Timberwolves 135-133. Hornets torched the Timberwolves on the offensive end. Hornets' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; 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 · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
