After Action Report

The Hornets handled the Timberwolves 112-94. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. The Hornets couldn't shake the cold spell; the Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Whispers of a Timberwolves locker-room rift aren't helping. The Timberwolves rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
