<u>Bass Agrees To Deal</u> <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Jul 25 - Brandon Bass, a 6-foot-8 power forward who didn't stick with the Hornets after two seasons, joined the Mavericks summer league team and now looks to become the club's first additional free-agent signing. The 33rd pick, out of LSU, in the 2005 draft, Bass has agreed in principal to a two-year contract with the Mavs, agent Derek Lafayette said Tuesday. The signing could put Pops Mensah-Bonsu's future with the Mavs in some doubt. The Mavs have until Aug. 31 to release him or extend the 6-9 power forward's contract for next season. -- Fort Worth Star-Telegram # "He's a young, athletic guy, and he's strong," Lafayette said. "He can bring a lot of energy to the table and bring some athleticism, along with his size. He's a good guy that can finish around the basket." -- Dallas Morning News </div> Good to see we don't have only shooting PFs now. He played pretty well during the summer league.
