That's great news. No so sure RJ would have been as open to the idea a season ago.
I do think one of the beat guys did clarify this quote although I don't have it in front of me: He was responding to a question of whether he would be a backup PF (with Josh Hart), not come off bench.
The aggregators got the quote wrong.
And what else would he say on media day?
Now, if the team starts off 3-11 and its clear RJ is stinking up the joint then yeah.
But I doubt there has been any lines written in stone or he starts the season off the bench.
The media was trying to bait RJ into making a selfish comment so they can have their headline imo. RJ is not coming off the bench.

They just got the quote wrong, no baiting.

Not a great sign? Because he did not actually say it?

You did not listen to it!
He never said a thing about the bench. I was about playing PF in spots. Like Josh.
22 Seconds. Not very long. Listen to the words. .
