After Action Report

The Timberwolves held off the Rockets 113-106. Timberwolves' offense had its way with the Rockets. Timberwolves' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Timberwolves. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Timberwolves · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Timberwolves · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Rockets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
