After Action Report

The Mavericks squeaked past the Timberwolves 114-110. The better team simply showed up tonight. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Mavericks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Timberwolves · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
