After Action Report
The Timberwolves snuck past the Trail Blazers 93-88. Every possession went the Timberwolves way. The Timberwolves pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Timberwolves rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
