RJ should have been the 6th man last season.

He can be a starter or 6th man on another team this season.

Have him start. Sub him off after just a few minutes. Have him excel playing off starters in those lineups, and then have him spread his playmaking wings as the bench pillar. 30+ minutes still. Probably finish most games too. Starting technically so it shouldn't be too much of a sacrifice.

Pseudo manu role.

That's how I'd go about it. Kinda threading the needle between starting and benching him

I would start RJ both with and without games with BI and then promote GD at SF start when BI out say 1 of 2 B to Bs.

Both RJ and SB out at 5 mins and have them come back with Bench. J’KW and CMB to replace them with Starters.
Many folks have talked Ochai but as soon as Nets and bulls settle RFA issue I try and move Ochai for positive draft capital and sign vet min while waiving Colin C to come in about $1 mil under tax.
Don’t get me wrong I like Ochai but our overpays have caused this. A teachable moment hopefully and we can sign vet min PG or C for roster depth.
