After Action Report
In Minnesota, the Timberwolves rolled past the Suns 94-73. The Suns couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Timberwolves. Timberwolves' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; second-chance points piled up for the Suns. The Suns looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Suns utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.
