After Action Report
In Minnesota, the Mavericks took care of the Timberwolves 88-76. The Timberwolves couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Mavericks. Mavericks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; shots just aren't falling for the Timberwolves lately. Whispers of a Timberwolves locker-room rift aren't helping. Timberwolves' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
