At this point we prolly want JRich to opt in just to have his contract to trade next season. We don't have a pick to trade in the off season unless someone wants a pick in 2025. Best bet is to hope JRich gets some value back or package him. We won't have any cap either going forward because of KP and Luka's salary(Gonna get a max extension). Best chance to improve is with trades IMO. We can always dream of a scenario where Brogdon is available and somehow we have something that appeals to Indiana. Hell I'd be happy with Turner and he's a lot more reasonable asset wise. Maybe you use his salary in a SnT for Lauri or WCJ from Chi. Whatever the thought process it's easier to get those guys with JRich under contract then him opting out and us signing someone for room level type money after resigning THJ.
