After Action Report

In Minnesota, the Timberwolves ran roughshod over the Bucks 126-93. Timberwolves controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Timberwolves' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Timberwolves' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Bucks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.

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.
  • Bucks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Bucks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
