After Action Report

The Timberwolves fended off the Jazz 112-106. Timberwolves torched the Jazz on the offensive end. The Timberwolves carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Jazz's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Timberwolves bench chemistry carried them. The Jazz rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Jazz · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Timberwolves · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
