Offseason wings: What to do with THJ and J-Rich?

So here are the facts:

Current salary for 2020/21:

J-Rich - 10.865 mio - he has a player option for next year at 11.615 mio 
THJ - 18.975 mio - he is a UFA

Cap-hold: 
J-Rich (if opted out) - 16.5 mio 
THJ - 28,5 mio (crazy!)
...........

What do you think about these outcomes? Do you actually see us keeping THJ on the books, if J-Rich opts in?

Edit: Of course there is the possibility of renouncing the cap holds AND still resigning players. But this seems not very likely, as you can´t go over the cap in this case.

Cap holds aren't that restrictive, even if the player is being signed for less. You keep the rights, then sign the player to the lower salary, and the cap hold is replaced by the salary. The team just has to do their summer roster building in the proper sequence, which they all know how to do (and every team does year after year).
