Magic forward Brandon Bass has seen his minutes reduced since Rashard Lewis returned from his 10-game suspension.

Bass signed a four-year, $18 million deal with Orlando this summer.

He has played just six minutes in the team's last three games.

"I think we're a better team with me out there," Bass said. "But we're winning, so there's really nothing I can say."

Bass thought he'd still play when Lewis returned, but coach Stan Van Gundy has given Lewis major minutes and Ryan Anderson has backed him up.

"I know it's not an easy thing for players," Van Gundy said.
