After Action Report
The Trail Blazers buried the Timberwolves 134-89. Trail Blazers' offense had its way with the Timberwolves. Trail Blazers' outside barrage was a constant threat; Timberwolves' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Whispers of a Timberwolves locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Timberwolves utilization choices clashed with the team identity. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
