After Action Report
In Minnesota, the Timberwolves took care of the Rockets 115-99. Timberwolves' offense had its way with the Rockets. Timberwolves' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Timberwolves ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Timberwolves · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
