After Action Report

The Nuggets snuck past the Timberwolves 105-103. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Shots just aren't falling for the Nuggets lately; the Timberwolves are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Timberwolves locker-room rift aren't helping. The Timberwolves rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

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