Lakers coach Phil Jackson says he could limit Andrew Bynum's minutes significantly if he is bothered by a knee injury for the four straight season.
Los Angeles could turn him essentially into a role player over the long-term if it will preserve his health.
Jackson hopes that they'll avoid such a scenario this season, but it's a possibility if he suffers another knee injury.
"We're hopeful that this is the time he's able to start playing consistently through a season," Jackson said.
"If not, we're going to have to look at Andrew as a short-minute guy, somebody like Yao Ming who's going to be limited in the amount of minutes he plays."
