Neo draft stock

In a SBNation mock draft, posted January 27, 2026, Neo no longer is listed as a first round pick. While these mock drafts are subjective and often inaccurate, it is worth noting that his game play has been recognized by national pundits as needing additional refinement to be successful at the next level. I am being diplomatic as I can with my use of words.

He wants to play an NBA style 2 man game, but nobody lets him

As of late January 2026, mocks have projected the Pistons selecting guard

Motor City, agree w/your assessment. Neo is not ready YET for NBA.**
