After Action Report

The Suns ran roughshod over the Timberwolves 113-89. Every possession went the Suns way. Suns' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Timberwolves' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Timberwolves locker-room rift aren't helping. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • 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.
