After Action Report

The Heat squeaked past the Timberwolves 117-112. Heat torched the Timberwolves on the offensive end. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Heat owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. The Heat rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
