EDGE Analysis

Although the Lakers are sitting Bass Thursday night, he's expected to return within the next couple of days. The injury won't keep him out for long as he continues to battle with Julius Randle for the starting power forward job heading into the regular season.

Bass will compete with Julius Randle for the starting power forward job according to coach Byron Scott, Mark Medina of the LA Daily News reports. Bass signed with the Lakers this offseason after spending his previous four years in Boston. Scott often switched his starting five around during his first year as coach with the Lakers and that's certainly a possibility for the season ahead as both Bass and Randle could see time as a starter over the course of the season. While Randle has more potential, Bass is a reliable option who has only missed one regular season game in the past three years.

Bass is expected to sign with the Lakers, Marc J. Spears of Yahoo! Sports reports. The Lakers traded for Roy Hibbert and have high hopes for Julius Randle, but the team could still use some veteran frontcourt depth. Although he should be able to carve out a sizable role, Bass may have to compete for minutes with Tarik Black, Robert Sacre, Ryan Kelly and Larry Nance.
