After Action Report
The Timberwolves blew the doors off the Hornets 128-96. Timberwolves torched the Hornets on the offensive end. The Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Timberwolves' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
