*Gold, Basic Economy and LAX

Hi United peeps
I'm venturing on to a non-OW forum because my LAX-LAS itinerary on Alaska got pushed back too late in the day, so I've booked an earlier flight on United basic economy for $38.
I think I know the answers but if someone could confirm & maybe clarify questions below.
With TAP Gold/ Star Alliance Gold. (No TSA Pre-check or similar).
1) I will be able to check in one bag for free
2) I will be able to take a full size hand luggage for above seat and personal item to put under seat in front
3) I will get lounge access at LAX and the best (only?) option is the United Club in T7.
4) Priority boarding - any idea which group?
5) Is there priority security at LAX and would I be eligible?
6) I haven't chosen a seat as I don't really mind for such a short flight. At check in will one just be assigned or will I be able to choose from what's available?
Many thanks
