After Action Report
The Trail Blazers demolished the Timberwolves 126-90. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Trail Blazers bench chemistry carried them. The Trail Blazers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
