Agree with all of this.  Would you rather send Green + both firsts for Deni, or Green + 25 for Caruso?  Either way you dump Timmy and bring DJJ off the bench.  Or Timmy + 25 for Grimes?

If we have Deni as a starter, then I would actually prioritize Green over DJJ.  We need shooting, right?  Avdija can be a creator from the SF position and plays strong D.  I love him and PJ as the 'Aaron Gordon' types with Luka, Kyrie and Lively.  That is a championship team.

I prioritize Deni over Caruso based on age, upside and contract.  It isn't close for me.  If I could, I'd do THJ and both firsts for Deni making the 2031 pick an unprotected swap.
