After Action Report
The Suns held off the Timberwolves 116-109. The breakneck pace played right into Suns' hands. Suns' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Suns owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Timberwolves rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
