After Action Report
The Timberwolves squeaked past the Trail Blazers 104-102. Ugly basketball, but the Timberwolves did just enough. Timberwolves' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Timberwolves steamroller is in full effect right now. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Timberwolves · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
