After Action Report
The Timberwolves fended off the Pacers 123-116. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Timberwolves cashed in. Timberwolves' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Timberwolves. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Pacers utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
