The Timberwolves will be reliant on Shabazz Muhammad to play key minutes next year
Shabazz Muhammad has always been the oft-neglected player of the Timberwolves' young core. Even when he was drafted in 2013 by the late Flip Saunders, Flip was apologetic over the draft choice and candid about how the draft had not gone anywhere near what they had planned. It seems so long ago, but coming into his lone collegiate season, Shabazz was the highest-ranked high school basketball athlete in the country. However, this was quickly marred during the season as Shabazz struggled in the NCAA, was known for attitude problems, and had to deal with controversy regarding his age.
