After Action Report
In Orlando, the Magic buried the Timberwolves 121-95. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. The Magic couldn't shake the cold spell; Magic's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Timberwolves looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Timberwolves' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Magic · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Timberwolves · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
