The way the 2014-15 season ended for Shabazz Muhammad didn’t seem fair.

After being in-and-out of shape during his rookie season in the NBA, Muhammad went to work before the season. He ran up hills of sand with weights strapped to his chest in San Francisco. To make things even more intense, Muhammad’s trainer went by “Crazy Frank”.

You know things are real when you're training with anyone who is described as crazy.

Muhammad lost roughly 25 pounds and averaged 13.5 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game in his second NBA season. He was one of the NBA’s most improved players.

There was one problem, though. Muhammad played in just 38 games. Muhammad’s season ended after undergoing surgery to repair a ruptured ligament in his middle finger (left hand).

It was a frustrating injury for the Wolves and Muhammad, but after a few months of rehab, Muhammad is finally feeling healthy.

“I can shoot, I’m healthy right now,” Muhammad said on Tuesday at The Courts. “I can pretty much work out and stuff like that, so I’ve been doing a lot of that stuff.”

Muhammad plans to go back to train with Crazy Frank later this week. He expects to work with Frank for more than two months. The put that in perspective, he spent just five weeks with Frank last summer. Muhammad acknowledged that he’s not in mid-season shape just yet and he’ll probably end up shedding some weight before Training Camp start.

“It’s going to be a grind working out two times a day with Frank so that’s going to be something that’s really motivating,” Muhammad said. “… I mean, I think I’m in good enough shape. Obviously I’m going to lose a lot more weight with Frank, but I can get up and down the floor, my shots looking good, so it’s just about conditioning and I think my whole body just feels better.”

Muhammad hopes to see the Wolves in Las Vegas during Summer League, but isn’t sure if his workout schedule will allow him to.

That's a good thing to hear for Wolves fans. Muhammad saw his work pay off last season. It looks like he plans to take advantage of that again.
