After Action Report

In Minnesota, the 76ers outlasted the Timberwolves 106-94. 76ers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The 76ers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the 76ers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them. The 76ers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
