After Action Report

The Timberwolves held off the Bulls 98-89. Ugly basketball, but the Timberwolves did just enough. The Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Timberwolves' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
