On another team, Shabazz Muhammad might average close to 20 points per game. He doesn't have a traditional wing's offensive game, but Muhammad has established himself as an effective scorer nonetheless, averaging 10.5 points in just 20.5 minutes per game in 2015-16, thanks to tons of shots at the rim and free-throw attempts, often coming off offensive rebounds. The problem, of course, is that it's awfully hard for him to bully his way into bigger minutes on a team that features even more talented young players ahead of him on the depth chart, in the form of Zach LaVine and Andrew Wiggins.
