SHABAZZ Muhammad went from being considered a once-in-a-generation talent to being out of the NBA and looking for a new team.

Muhammad has spent six seasons in the NBA and playing for two teams.
The Califonia-born athlete was a standout high school player growing up in Nevada and was named Gatorade Player of the Year his senior season.
Muhammad was a top five recruit coming out, had offers from several top schools nationwide, and was a McDonald’s All-American.
He attended UCLA over Duke and Kentucky. Muhammad played one season with the program.
The former five-star recruit had a stellar season, winning Freshman of the Year and was named to the All-American Team.
The Minnesota Timberwolves selected Muhammad in the first round with the No. 14 pick in the 2013 NBA draft.
He would play five seasons with the Timberwolves and was offered a four-year, $40million contract extension, and he turned it down with the hope of getting more.
However, he had a down season in his final year in Minnesota and was released by the team.
Muhammad signed a one-year contract with the Bucks and was waived during preseason.
He would spend the following two seasons in China before playing in the Philippines and the NBA G-League, then heading back to China, where Muhammad currently plays.
Muhammad has earned over $10million in his career and spoke about his experience and desire to get back to the NBA.
“I’ve definitely been humbled…One thing I’ve learned — nothing comes easy,” he told The Athletic last year.
“If it was, everyone would be doing it. You have to learn how to deal with things when they don’t go your way.
“You should be grateful when you get to the NBA, but you can’t stop when you get there.
“That’s when the work starts. It’s hard to get there. It’s harder to stay,” Muhammad said.
