After Action Report
In Minnesota, the Celtics snuck past the Timberwolves 102-99. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; shots just aren't falling for the Celtics lately. Whispers of a Timberwolves locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Timberwolves utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
