After Action Report
The Lakers handled the Timberwolves 127-117. Lakers' offense had its way with the Timberwolves. The Lakers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Lakers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
